Hey,
To support a PR-building workflow, I have a plugin which sets the branch
used by the Jenkins workspace, to something I configure (which is the
pr-branch).
This happens by using the GitSCM API, a very abbreviated version of what
happens is this:
GitTool tool = GitTool.getDefaultInstallation();
GitClient git = Git.with(listener,
env).in(workspaceDir).using(tool.getGitExe()).getClient();
git.fetch("origin", new RefSpec(refspec));
git.checkout(localBranch);
What I would like to do is make the changelog that appears on the build
page understand that the base branch used is not master (or whatever the
default branch is that the job was configured to use). Currently, I notice
the changelog is unaware the branch built from changed, and so it shows the
wrong commits.
I have tried to change the BuildData associated with the job, and that
part at least makes the GitData link that shows on the build page name and
link to the correct (in this case the PR branch) branch. This doesn't seem
to be what ChangeLog is looking at though. I took a quick look and the
changelog logic is kind of complex, so if anyone knows how this works
that'd be super useful - this must be a thing we can do one way or another.
thanks :)
