Strike that. I see what's going on in my code now. To make a long story
short, Jenkins is working correctly and I'm getting what I ask for.
Essentially I've got something like the below, which results in multiple
'foo' workspaces('foo', 'foo@2' and 'foo@3'), which is the expected and
correct behaviour of the Jenkins 'ws' step.
node('someslave') {
ws('foo') {
ws('foo') {
ws('foo') {
}
}
}
}
