      I consider this a bug, but feel free to reclassify.

      node {
    ws ('workspace/customDir') {
        println "workspace: ${env.WORKSPACE}"
    }
}

      [Pipeline] node
Running on <node> in E:\JenkinsRoot\workspace\Experiments\Test_Workspace
[Pipeline] {
[Pipeline] ws
Running in E:\JenkinsRoot\workspace\customDir
[Pipeline] {
[Pipeline] echo
workspace: E:\JenkinsRoot\workspace\Experiments\Test_Workspace
[Pipeline] }
[Pipeline] // ws
[Pipeline] }
[Pipeline] // node
[Pipeline] End of Pipeline
Finished: SUCCESS

      I can't find a way, in code, to get the path to the workspace after using the ws step. At the moment the only way I've found is to run a batch or shell script and get the current working directory from there.

      Please tell me if I'm missing something
