SCM Skip not skipping when changelog is empty

    • Jenkins 2.406 with SCM Skip plugin 1.0.3 on Windows Server 2022 Standard GitLab Enterprise Edition 13.0.6-ee

      Our branch open process pushes an empty commit to mark the beginning of the development process (we call them "versions") with a commit title like:

      [ARCAD-Builder] ARCAD Build Commit [ci-skip]

      There are no changes in the commit (intentionally) the commit id is just used as a marker to synchronize with our external build system.

      The SCM Skip build is ignoring the commit message (the job runs) and we see this message in the Console Output:
      SCM Skip: Changelog is empty!
       

      That makes the SCM Skip plugin unusable for our purposes - interestingly enough the GitLab plugin also has a  [ci-skip] option - that option does work correctly for the exact same commit messages (without changes to the default regex) so it appears that the same code could be used/copied in this plugin to support "generic" skip regardless of git repo type.

          This really needs to get fixed.  It's more than just an annoyance.   Any build that gets queued up immediately behind the build that should have been skipped while it's still running does not execute.  I'm using GitHub.  Exact same issue.
