      Failure
      specified git branch to checkout/build is not used

      Reproducible by

      • a defined job including text parameter “GIT_BRANCH_NAME” (textParameter_GIT_BRANCH_NAME.png)
      • use git as source code management
      • check out to specific local branch
      • provide an existing remote branch (other than remote master) is provided as parameter
        • remote master branch is check out and build

      Expected behavior

      • branch provided by text parameter “GIT_BRANCH_NAME” is checked out and build

      Details

      • Jenkins ver. 1.554.2
      • Ubuntu precise (12.04.2 LTS)

          Steps I used while attempting to duplicate this bug report with git plugin 2.4.0 and git client plugin 1.19.0 :

          1. Create a multi-configuration Jenkins job "JENKINS-23714-parameterized-branch-name-ignored" using elastic axis and the axis definition "linux || freebsd" (selects 13 different Unix-like configurations in my test environment) - free style project and a single node has the same behavior
          2. Add a parameter GIT_BRANCH_NAME to that job, default value master
          3. Use git as the SCM for the job
          4. Configure repository as git://github.com/MarkEWaite/git-client-plugin.git
          5. Configure "Branches to build" as `origin/${GIT_BRANCH_NAME}`
          6. Add $GIT_BRANCH_NAME as "Additional Behaviours" "Checkout to specific local branch"
          7. Add an XShell (or shell) build step git branch
          8. Add an XShell (or shell) build step git log -n 1

          When I run that job with the parameter value "master-pom-formatter", it correctly performs the checkout of the origin/master-pom-formatter branch and uses a local branch named master-pom-formatter. The same for other branches.

          Since the original submitter did not include a plugin version number which shows the problem, and I can't see it on the most recent release of the plugins, I'm marking this as resolved.
