CloneWorkspaceSCM does not work in a pipeline job

      My first attempts with pipeline failed trying to make the Clone Workspace Plugin work.

      I could not find any descriptive example how to do that, so it's mostly guessing.

      I tried

      checkout([$class: 'CloneWorkspaceSCM', parentJobName: 'Job name', criteria: 'Any'])

      which at least can be executed.

      But the build hangs forever in the checkout step.

      Am I doing it wrong or is it a bug? How to clone a workspace in a pipeline job?

          ...huh, I completely forgot I wrote this plugin in the first place! Yeah, it definitely doesn't work in Pipeline currently - but! I'll try to take a look next week and see how much heavy lifting is needed to get Pipeline support.

          Too bad this does not receive any attention. That makes it even harder to rebuild complex jobs in pipeline when you additionally have to abandon the workspace cloning.

          Completely abandoned CloneWorkspace plugin now, because nobody cares about it. Feel free to close.
