Initial checkout doesnt create directory listed in Check out to a sub-directory
I figured out now that to get $GIT_BRANCH recognized in the subdirectory field, you can NOT use { } (that is, ${GIT_BRANCH} will fail, but $GIT_BRANCH succeeds). Thus, now, we are able to checkout to a subdirectory in the workspace at $GIT_BRANCH/src and then in the build script, cd into $WORKSPACE/GIT_BRANCH/src and go ahead and build.

Initial checkout doesnt create directory listed in Check out to a sub-directory
Before I upgraded my github plugin yesterday, checking out to a subdir of ${GIT_BRANCH}/src was working. After upgrading, this fails. Even worse, since the build script does a "cd ${GIT_BRANCH}/src" and succeeds for projects that were building before the upgrade, it means we're building old source code.
New jobs that have never been built fail with the error posted in the bug description on the first run. Checkouts seem to succeed later because literally in ~jenkins/jobs/job/workspace a directory called "${GIT_BRANCH}" has been created.
So now, using $GIT_BRANCH is impossible for sub-directories. This is a more serious bug to me, I don't have a work around because we build multiple branches in the same workspace.
Help!

j potter commented on JENKINS-23450 Initial checkout doesnt create directory listed in Check out to a sub-directory That might be possible we're seeing something odd with multi-branch builds, too it seems like GIT_BRANCH always lags behind one build on what its value is. That is, starting out, if we push to branch A, Jenkins builds branch A, then if we push to branch B, Jenkins builds A, then if we push to B, it'll build B. Hmm, how to write this? If our push sequence is A B B B A B, Jenkins will build A A B B B A essentially it's seeing the prior build's value of GIT_BRANCH. Something like this. We evaluated switching away from Jenkins to Atlassian's Bamboo because of this issue, but they don't have the ability to integrate with Github triggers for building branches correctly (just polling), so back to Jenkins and manually fixing this (which is annoying writing a job that accepts the trigger and then makes API calls to Jenkins to add the branches as new jobs). -Jeff This message is automatically generated by JIRA.

Mark Waite commented on JENKINS-23450 Initial checkout doesnt create directory listed in Check out to a sub-directory If you were willing to consider a switch to Atlassian Bamboo, then you could probably also consider upgrading to the Cloudbees supported version of Jenkins. The lead maintainer of the git plugin is a Cloudbees employee, so you could probably get a fix for the issue if you were a Cloudbees customer. I'm not a Cloudbees employee, just aware that they provide a purchased and supported version of Jenkins in addition to contributing many of their development efforts to the open source version.

Just a guess, but I suspect that the value of ${GIT_BRANCH} is not set at the time when the subdirectory for checkout is evaluated.

Initial checkout doesnt create directory listed in Check out to a sub-directory
Issue Type:
Bug
Assignee:
Nicolas De Loof
Components:
git
Created:
16/Jun/14 5:36 PM
Description:
We have the local subdirectory for repo defined as "${GIT_BRANCH}" this creates a different subdirectory for every branch being built, allowing us to cache a lot of build objects between builds while keeping separate branches, well, separated.
However, the very first trigger of the build for any given branch fails. It's fine after that; as in, works fine after a second push to our git repo (which then hits Jenkins via github's webhook API).
Any thoughts as to what's causing this?
Thanks!
