      In Multibranch Pipeline job, using Helix Branches, how do I specify exclusionary mapping so that my .cache directory won't get deleted during p4 reconcile.

      Tried using the hyphen notation, but was not able to keep the .cache directory in Jenkins workspace.

          Hi bingshiao. Do you have a Perforce support contract? If you do can you please email support@perforce.com  so I take this discussion offline.

          With Perforce getting the jenkinsfile and getting the source should be two seperate steps for best control. Therefore I think redesigning the job to disable implicit checkout ( 'options { skipDefaultCheckout() }'  in the Jenkinsfile) and use an explicit checkout or sync step in the Jenkinsfile with the exclusion is the solution. There is a simple example in:
