Hi,

I am experiencing a problem on the GIT polling and here are the details:

When the option "Branches to build" on GIT Plugin for Jenkins is "blank" or "**" the GIT polling working just fine but when I entered "master" or "origin/master" or other to option "Branches to build" the GIT polling crashes with the following error (see also snapshots):
