Patched class hudson.model.node to use custom FileSystemProvisioner instead of default one We have solved this issue by using a custom FileSystemProvisioner (see
attachment). Unfortunately this requires the following change in the hudson
core class hudson.model.Node:
public FileSystemProvisioner getFileSystemProvisioner()
{ // TODO: make this configurable or auto-detectable or something else // return FileSystemProvisioner.DEFAULT; // use custom FileSystemProvisioner to delete workspace if release build is triggered. return CustomFileSystemProvisioner.RELEASE; } michaelhaug

appears to of added a "Delete workspace before build starts"
I do not want to do this on every build only Release builds.
If I attempt to clean the workspace using this plugin step "Before release build"
then it is executed after the checkout/update which is obviously of no use.

I'm not a seasoned jenkins developer but the attached patch seems to Work For Me. I would appreciate it if a contributor to this plugin would review it.
