Job Ownership not available if VCS fails

      If VCS checkout/update fails, you can't send emails to job owners since the variables are not injected.

      Can I somehow set a default, e.g. an admin, and let every job override it? That would make for a nice workaround in case it's not possible to inject the variables at the start of a build (before code is checked out).

          Hello Hubert,

          As a workaround, you could use Token Macro in Mail-Ext plugin.
          See wiki for available macro descriptions.

          Macros correctly define owners on any build stage.

          Best regards,
          Oleg Nenashev

          I'll try that. thanks. Do you by chance know if one can set a default value nonetheless? If i set default recipients to job owners globally and a job doesn't define owners or doesn't inject them I'd like to forward the emails to an admin.

          Currently, there's no such support in the plugin.
          BTW, there's nothing complex to do it. If you create a JIRA issue, I'll try to handle it on the next week (I'm on the business trip now).

          Thanks for the fast reply. I've created two new issues JENKINS-23947 and JENKINS-23948 because I'm not sure what's the best solution here - maybe a mix of both. Feel free to reject any of them.

          I'll add the default value to token macros
