             Summary: Unable to checkout SCM repository once for complex 
configuration matrixes
                 Key: JENKINS-13042
                 URL: https://issues.jenkins-ci.org/browse/JENKINS-13042
             Project: Jenkins
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: core, git, matrix
    Affects Versions: current
         Environment: any
            Reporter: Rune Darrud
            Assignee: Nicolas De Loof


When a project got a configuration matrix, the source code is checked out 
multiple times:
- Once for reference incase of poll scm on schedule.
- Once per matrix item, increasing proportionaly to the complexity.

In this example environment, git is used as SCM.
Under Advanced, setting a repo path locally to the workspace to a set 
directory, still checks out the source code per matrix item.

I expected an option to be available to override the checking out of the 
underlying SCM for matrix items, alternatively inherit the forced path from the 
advanced option. In this environment, the first thing done per matrix item, is 
chrooting to LVM partitions, thus wasting a lot of time updating the forced 
matrix item SCM repo in addition to the space.
