OK, so this is kind of complex so hang with me. We're moving from StarTeam to Github and I'm trying to reproduce what I'm doing in StarTeam with Github. StarTeam was easy because I owned the repository machine as well as administrated the tool. With Github, we're hosted. So I'm admin on the project but can't create an RSA Token on the machine for easy access. So I had to play around to make a personal access token work. In order to make that access token work, I had to run the checkout job on a different node so that it was running as a user that lived in Github as well (access token's namesake). So when this job gets called from the jenkins job, I want it to clone to the calling job's workspace (/opt/jenkins/workspace/<project_name>). Well since in order to authenticate, it lives in it's own shell, the workspace for this guy, and where it wants to clone to, is /home/<username>/<project_name>. All that for my question: how can I specify what folder to checkout to? I tried to use "checkout to specific local branch" but it fails saying "is not a valid branch name". Well, yeah, branch is referring to branch not folder, lol. In StarTeam this is easy, you just specify working folder. Any help? Thanks!
