We have a GitHub organization with repos detected and built by github-branch-folder.
I note the following from https://wiki.jenkins.io/display/JENKINS/Git+Plugin for "Version 3.4.0 (July 17, 2017)" > > - Because each branch job in a multibranch project will only ever > build the one specific branch, the default behaviour for a Git Branch > Source is now to use a minimal refspec corresponding to just the required > branch. Tags will not be checked out by default. If you have a multibranch > project that requires the full set of ref-specs (for example, you might > have a pipeline that will use some analysis tool on the diff with some > other branch) you can restore the previous behaviour by adding the > "Advanced Clone Behaviours". Note: In some cases you may also need to add > the "Specify ref specs" behaviour. > > I click into my_organization->Configure->Projects under GitHub Organization and enable "Advanced clone behaviors". Instead of an option to _enable_ fetching of tags, there is "Do not fetch tags". It is not enabled, however My builds still do not fetch tags. I tried enabling it in the hopes that it was just a developer forgetting to update the description, but no luck: Running on jenkins-agent-8GB-0c2185cb-8ff2-402c-8e9e-3e49df68e557 in /jenkins/workspace/rfree_docker-jenkins_master-76M6OWBGMGMW63CGIV6UX7DGQI3CXBAL6A5BM6Z7HKBA3SXZTZBQ[Pipeline] {[Pipeline] stage[Pipeline] { (Declarative: Checkout SCM)[Pipeline] checkout > git rev-parse --is-inside-work-tree # timeout=10 > Fetching changes from the remote Git repository > > git config remote.origin.url > https://github.com/anchorfree/docker-jenkins.git # timeout=10 > Fetching without tags > Fetching upstream changes from > https://github.com/anchorfree/docker-jenkins.git > > git --version # timeout=10 > using GIT_ASKPASS to set credentials Jenkins Global Pipeline Libraries scan > credentials > > git fetch *--no-tags* --progress > https://github.com/anchorfree/docker-jenkins.git > +refs/heads/master:refs/remotes/origin/master > Checking out Revision 41cfac69a0c19ef98ff70ff1bba0e571c81bd5c2 (master) > Commit message: "upgrade to official Jenkins 2.60.3" > > How do I get Jenkins to fetch tags?
