Github polls fails when the Branches to build is different from empty for private repositories

XMLWordPrintable

    • Type: Bug
    • Resolution: Incomplete
    • Priority: Major
    • Component/s: github-plugin
    • Environment:

      No sure if this is as github-plugin issue or if this plugin is relying on some other git API.

      But for private repositories, when I configure the Branches to build - Branch Specifier to anything that is no empty or ** (ie. refs/heads/) , GitHub Hook Log shows the following error and the jobs does not get triggered:

      Note1:
      I have tried all the combination described in the help of Branches to build - Branch Specifier 

      refs/heads/*
refs/heads/master
origin/master
origin/*
master

      They all come with the same issues.
      If I leave that empty or I set it to ** this starts to work as expected.

      Note2:
      If I leave the branch speccifier set to refs/head/master and I convert my private repo into a public in github this works fine, no error found and the job is triggered correctly

      Please let me know if you need more information
