      We configured the workflow multibranch plugin with the option to "Discover pull requests from origin".  We've set this at both "current pull request revision" and "both".  When a pull request is created in Bitbucket, Jenkins creates the folder and view for the pull request, but the first build always fails.  It then works when manually triggered to build again.

      Here is an example error message:

      > git fetch --no-tags --progress https://bitbucket.athenahealth.com/scm/ANML/prediction-service-api.git +refs/pull-requests/12/from:refs/remotes/origin/PR-12
