Space required at the end of the interpreter in a shell step

XMLWordPrintable

      The following shell step only works if a space is added after 'bash'.

      sh label: 'with bash', script: '''#!/bin/bash 
 if [[ 0 = 0 ]]; then echo ok; else echo bad; fi
 '''

      Without the space the shebang line appears to be ignored.

      Having to end a line with a space is very counter-intuitive.

          Works for me with or without the space, using the built-in node on Ubuntu 22.04 for which sh is Dash (so I get bad as expected if the shebang is deleted altogether).
