Git revision information displays information regarding last build

      Visiting the build page shortly after a new build has been started, the revision information displayed is from the last build.

      Obviously, Jenkins only knows the details on the current revision after the SCM step is done. However, on several occassions this has lead to confusion among our users, who thought something was going wrong and aborted the build.

      How about not displaying revision information until it is available? Would that be possible?

          [JENKINS-27444] Git revision information displays information regarding last build

          I also see this happening sometimes, and I need to Retrigger the build, to get the information correct.

          Even after the build is done, the description points to a completely different (Git) Revision, with completely different branches, than the GERRIT_BRANCH and GERRIT_PATCHSET_REVISION used in the Environment Variables.

          The bad part is, that it is the Git Revision mentioned on the front page, that is actually checked out, and not the GERRIT_BRANCH and GERRIT_PATCHSET_REVISION, so for me this gives an real error in the build, so I think it should be prioritized up.
