Hello,

My jenkins configuration is as follows:
1) when a commit occurs, a job builds a tarball and saves as an artifact
2) it triggers a multiconfiguration job to check that tarball artifact on 
multiple slaves
3) once every night, if some commits occured since the previous night, some 
longer jobs (one multiconfiguration and one normal) that check the last 
tarball with more debugging options (these ones are slow, I don't want to 
run them too often)

So jobs (3) need to poll the SCM to know if new builds are needed, but they 
will use the tarball/artifact as the actual source to build.

Before we switched to GIT (and github), (3) would poll the SVN repo once 
per night with depth=empty (so that it doesn't actually checkout anything), 
and then work on the tarball. No problem.

I cannot convert that to GIT. I enabled "fast remote polling", but it keeps 
trying to clone the entire directory (which fails because some slaves don't 
have GIT installed).
Why does it keep cloning (both for multiconfig and normal jobs)?

Thanks
Brice
