In the big picture, I want to give my users a job where they specify both
the source (fork) and destination (upstream) git repository, as well as the
source and destination branch names, and I want jenkins to merge the source
(repo, branch) into the destination (repo, branch), then build. The source
repo is a fork of the upstream repo, necessarily.
The git-plugin clones and fetches everything without any problem, but it
errors out in the end. I am puzzled.
Here is the configuration:
Repo URL: ${UPSTREAM_REPO}
Name: upstream
Refspec:
+refs/heads/${UPSTREAM_BRANCH}:refs/remotes/upstream/${UPSTREAM_BRANCH}
Repo URL: ${FORK_REPO}
Name: fork
Refspec: +refs/heads/${FORK_BRANCH}:refs/remotes/fork/${FORK_BRANCH}
Additional behaviours:
Wipe out repository and force clone
Check out to specific local branch: ${UPSTREAM_BRANCH}
Merge before build
Name of repository: upstream
Branch to merge to: ${UPSTREAM_BRANCH}
The the user supplies the four parameters:
UPSTREAM_REPO=ssh://[email protected]/path/project.git
UPSTREAM_BRANCH=master
FORK_REPO=ssh://[email protected]/~user/project.git
FORK_BRANCH=master
The the user hits build, and the git-plugin ends with an error:
Seen branch in repository fork/master
Seen branch in repository upstream/master
Seen 2 remote branches
ERROR: Couldn't find any revision to build. Verify the repository and
branch configuration for this job.
Finished: Failure
There are no errors before that in the log. The workspace contains the .git
folder, with those branches not checked out - despite the fact that I asked
for a specific local branch to be checked out:
git branch -a
remotes/fork/master
remotes/upstream/master
What causes the Git plugin to error out like that? What makes it decide
that it should abort instead of proceeding with the build?
I use Git 2.4.3, git-plugin 2.4.0, jenkins 1.609.1.
Thanks,
Martin
