The return value of the git step should be the commit hash, etc., and there should be a way to pass that back in to a subsequent git step in case you want to check out the same revision in another workspace (without copying files).

      The workaround is to archive and then unarchive sources.

          You can also pipe the current revision into a file and archive that file to be reused later on in the workflow instead of the complete source code.

          For a multibranch Pipeline job (Jenkinsfile), it would be straightforward to expose the SCMRevision as a special Groovy variable, as it is Serializable. Depending on the SCM source, you will get various available properties, such as hash in the case of Git branches (JENKINS-33161 would offer pullHash for pull request builds), though these would need to be marked @Whitelisted too.

          For general use including non-multibranch builds it would be desirable to get variables generically from the checkout step though this would require a core API change (JENKINS-24141). For the case of the git and svn convenience steps these could directly return the revision.

          I understand that this is still not implemented, therefore one needs to go the rev-parse way, but is there a possibility to modify scm object to use the correct revision, instead of making a brand new one, like

          checkout([$class: 'GitSCM', branches: [[name: 'XXX']], extensions: [[$class: 'SubmoduleOption', parentCredentials: true], [$class: 'CleanCheckout']], userRemoteConfigs: [[credentialsId: 'YYY', url: 'ZZZ']]])
          

          and basically have to duplicate all the SCM settings? Sorry for a newb Groovy question, if this is trivial.

          modify scm object to use the correct revision

          If by “correct revision” you just mean “the same revision I checked out somewhere earlier in the build”, then for multibranch Pipelines this is automatic when you do checkout scm. For simple projects using CpsScmFlowDefinition it is not possible due to limitations in the SCM API; it would be possible to provide an alternate FlowDefinition that uses scm-api, i.e. branch sources, and which provides the same guarantee of a consistent revision across calls to checkout scm.

          I'm very surprised to hear that. Multibranch pipeline project is exactly what I have. In my pipeline, I have multiple stages, which all do checkout scm for now, and inside each stage I have checkouts on multiple workers in parallel. The pipeline currently runs for an hour, or so, and if someone commits when the pipeline is already running, the checkout scm in the next stage picks up new commits, and not the commit with which the pipeline has been started.

          I want checkout scm to always checkout the commit which triggered the build, and not the branch which triggered the build, whatever the branch state is. Please see a screenshot attached...

          Yury Zaytsev added a comment -

          Just to clarify what you see on the screenshot: first it started building revision 3dc9d2b (1 commits since the last build), but then someone merged another branch while the pipeline was running, and checkout scm in the later stages picked up the new state 0825e24 (4 commits more), which is two merge commits away from the last build. Now, in the meantime, build #83 has been triggered with 0825e24, and both kept running in parallel, which, of course, doesn't make any sense.

          Ideally, I would like newer builds to abort previous ones as they get to the end of the stage, but, in the mean time, at least checkout scm should always checkout the same thing within one build.

          So, thank you for answering, but I can't see how what you're saying is correct.

          Then that is a bug, which should be filed separately with complete, self-contained steps to reproduce from scratch. The version consistency guarantee of checkout scm does have test coverage, including of course for Git.

          I want checkout scm to always checkout the commit which triggered the build

          Well there is not necessarily any such commit, or unique commit. What is guaranteed is that the repository revision from which Jenkinsfile was loaded whenever the build actually started running will match that of any subsequent checkout scm commands.

          My running proposal FTR:

          For freestyle projects, there is ≤1 SCM, so we just set build-wide environment variables, and unless you are using the multi-SCM plugin which barely works, you are fine. For Pipeline, we could do the same if JENKINS-42499 were fixed, but the result will be useless for >1 (distinct) checkout. So while the core API might simply be widened to accept Run rather than AbstractBuild (JENKINS-24141), I would suggest having SCMStep return a Map<String,String> (perhaps) rather than set actual environment variables. Thus you could write, for example:

          def sha1 = checkout(scm).GIT_COMMIT

          fwiw, that'd still probably need buildEnvVars(Run,Map) anyway to get the map in the first place, wouldn't it? Just that we'd be returning the Map rather than adding it to an existing EnvVars.

          Actually, thinking about it more, maybe the right approach is to write off the legacy SCMs and just worry about implementations of SCMStep other than GenericSCMStep, offloading the decision as to whether to reuse code across about SomeSCM.buildEnvVars(AbstractBuild,Map) and SomeSCMStep.

          So, I am a bit confused here. This ticket has been resolved but I'm not sure what combination of versions (core, plugins, etc.) are needed in order to make this work. Could someone clarify those particulars?

          Mark Waite added a comment -

          Git plugin 3.4.1 includes the necessary change, though JENKINS-45489 shows that some of the entries in the returned map seem to include incorrect data. JENKINS-45489 includes more details of the testing and could also be used as an example of how to read the information.

          I don't know the versions of the other SCM plugins which have that capability.

          Hmmm - I have Git plugin v3.4.1 installed, but the following snippet of code returns 'null'. Am I doing something wrong?

           

          node {
              def retval = checkout (changelog: true, poll: true, scm: [$class: 'GitSCM', ... other params for the git checkout])
              echo retval.toString()   // <--- prints 'null'

          I don't know how groovy .toString() of a map behaves. The retval is a map. You can see an example of the check I'm running in my test pipeline, if that helps

          Yeah, that's why I asked. It looks like my snippet from above should work but it doesn't so something on my system must need to be updated or something. I'd like to know which bits I'm missing to make it work.

          Just to be clear, the return value from checkout() is actually null on my system, so it has nothing to do with the toString() method. Here's a variation to illustrate:

           

          node {
              def retval = checkout (...)
              if (retval == null) echo "Undefined"
          }

          This snippet prints out "Undefined" in the log.

          just wanted to add that

          GIT_REV=checkout(scm).GIT_COMMIT

          works for us when run as part of a declarative pipeline within script{}

          leedega, my working sample is using scripted pipeline. Since romanp's working sample is using declarative, I'm confident it works in both cases with the latest plugin versions.

          I run my tests using the plugin versions stored in my lts-with-plugins repository. If you'd like to compare versions, you could clone that repository (you'll need git lfs, since it is LFS enabled).

          markewaite romanp What version of the jenkins core are you both using? I'm currently on LTS v2.46.3. Maybe there is some feature in a newer core version that is required to make this work as well.

          I doubt the differences between Jenkins 2.46.3 (the prior LTS) and 2.60.2 (the current LTS and the version I'm using) are enough to matter here. Have you checked your plugins for upgrades?

          Yes, I updated the Git plugin and all pipeline* plugins to the latest version yesterday to try and get this working. This is what prompted me to post my original question. I can try upgrading the Jenkins core on one of my sandboxes just to see if that makes any difference just in case.

          You need Jenkins core 2.60 or later. Messaging has been added to the checkout step’s inline help already.

          With above changes, will it be possible to get the Environment list in the following way,

          <snip>

          Run run;

          EnvVars env = run.getEnvironment(listener);

          env.get("GIT_URL");

          hariharan The environment variables are returned by the pipeline checkout command as a map

          def map_of_checkout_vars = checkout([$class: 'GitSCM'])
          

          Refer to my Jenkinsfile for an example using those variables.

          Hello,

          I have the same issue than leedega, with Jenkins 2.60.2 and Git plugin 3.5.0 : checkout command does not return anything.

          Is an other plugin needed to recover and process these variables ?

          slapersonne I'm using Jenkins 2.60.2 with the plugins listed in my lts-with-plugin repository. You could compare your plugin list to those plugins to detect differences.

          Thank you for your answers, with workflow-scm-step updated to 2.6 the variables can well be recovered within the map.

          Hello, I had this support ticket https://support.cloudbees.com/hc/en-us/requests/47538 marked as resolved based on the work done to resolve this issue. My request was for pipeline to support GHPRB style "skip build phrase". Forgive me but it's not obvious how I would leverage the fix for this issue to give me the "skip build phrase" type functionality. Could you give some pointers on that?

          Thanks

          rainwaj I assume they were thinking that one or more of the values in the map returned from the pipeline checkout() step could be used inside your pipeline script. The names include the GIT_COMMIT, GIT_AUTHOR, and GIT_AUTHOR, and the associated values come from the most recent commit on that branch.

          I think they intended that you would use those values to decide if the pipeline should finish early, rather than continuing through to the end of the pipeline.

          Thanks for the reply markewaite. Do you happen to know if checkout() is also returning the PR title/description and/or comments? I think that's the only way this new functionality could provide the same value as "Skip Build Phrase" from GHPRB.

          rainwaj I know that it is not returning any pull request specific information (at least not at this time). It returns information about the commit and its branch, not about the pull request.

          Hello, i asked a question on StackOverflow, i am using JGit and cannot get any information from scm checkout using the latest version of the plugin.

          Would you know if this is a limitation of JGit itself, or from the SCM steps plugin ?

          gotson in your stackoverflow question, you mention that you're running git plugin 3.3.0. The fix was not included in the git plugin until 3.3.2. You'll need to update to at least git plugin 3.3.2.
