Pipeline Job seems to ignore Branch Specifiers in config.xml when being triggered by BitBucket Plugin

XMLWordPrintable

      We use web hooks from Bitbucket to trigger our Pipeline jobs. Our job configuration is set up through Job DSL, where multiple branches are specified per job (https://jenkinsci.github.io/job-dsl-plugin/#path/pipelineJob-scm-git-branches).

      However, only incoming hooks for commits to master triggers a build. Through poking around and debugging the BitBucket Plugin, Workflow Job and GitSCM plugins, it seems that none of the BranchSpecs are deserialized from the GitSCM plugin:

      In hudson.plugins.git.GitSCM the following field is empty

      private List<BranchSpec> branches;
      

      I can see these branches are included in the pipeline job's config.xml:

      Hooks from master are the only ones triggering a build, as it seems to be the default branch when a BranchSpec is missing.

      I've done the exact same debugging with a regular Maven Job and then everything works as expected. 'List<BranchSpec> branches' is populated with the same branches as specified in the config.xml

      A workaround I've thought to use is another type of job just for triggering the Pipeline Job with the correct branch as a parameter...
