Hi jenkinytes,
I've been struggling with pushing a build a git tag when a build is
promoted. I've set up a build to be promoted when it's downstream
build succeeds, and then as the (only) promotion action I've set the
Git Publisher to push a (newly created) tag with certain name to the
repository that I checked out from in the first place. The config is
like this:

<?xml version='1.0' encoding='utf-8'?>
<hudson.plugins.promoted__builds.PromotionProcess>
  <keepDependencies>false</keepDependencies>
  <properties />
  <scm class="hudson.scm.NullSCM" />
  <canRoam>true</canRoam>
  <disabled>false</disabled>
  <blockBuildWhenDownstreamBuilding>false</
blockBuildWhenDownstreamBuilding>
  <blockBuildWhenUpstreamBuilding>false</
blockBuildWhenUpstreamBuilding>
  <triggers class="vector" />
  <concurrentBuild>false</concurrentBuild>
  <conditions>
 
<hudson.plugins.promoted__builds.conditions.DownstreamPassCondition>
      <jobs>TestJob - test </jobs>
      <evenIfUnstable>false</evenIfUnstable>
    </
hudson.plugins.promoted__builds.conditions.DownstreamPassCondition>
  </conditions>
  <icon>star-gold</icon>
  <buildSteps>
    <hudson.plugins.git.GitPublisher>
      <configVersion>2</configVersion>
      <pushMerge>false</pushMerge>
      <pushOnlyIfSuccess>false</pushOnlyIfSuccess>
      <tagsToPush>
        <hudson.plugins.git.GitPublisher_-TagToPush>
          <targetRepoName>origin</targetRepoName>
          <tagName>build-${BUILD_NUMBER}</tagName>
          <createTag>true</createTag>
        </hudson.plugins.git.GitPublisher_-TagToPush>
      </tagsToPush>
    </hudson.plugins.git.GitPublisher>
  </buildSteps>
</hudson.plugins.promoted__builds.PromotionProcess>

However, when the build is promoted, the promotion action fails with
this messagen:

Legacy code started this job.  No cause information is available
Building on master in workspace /home/java/.jenkins/jobs/TestJob/
workspace
Promoting TestJob - Build #47
failed build hudson.plugins.git.GitPublisher@3d9f2b SUCCESS
Finished: FAILURE

Beside that fact that it's confusing (how can it bet successfull and
still fail), I also can't figure out what the problem is, because
there is no stacktrace or anything. I know the config is good because
exactly the same setup does work if you configure it as a normal, post-
buid build publiser.

I'm using Jenkins 1.449 and the Promoted Builder plugin v.2.4
Ayone know what's going on? Any help would be much appreciated.
Regards,
Maarten
