If I may comment on this, I think the main issue is that there is currently no maintainer for the svn plugin. So, even if someone was able to make the changes Stephen suggested, they may not be released.
It’s quite a problem for some of us that Subversion is no longer well supported in Jenkins.

In principle should not be too hard to do. The code is currently using the "old-style" https://github.com/jenkinsci/subversion-plugin/blob/master/src/main/java/jenkins/scm/impl/subversion/SubversionSCMSource.java#L403-L405 so it doesn't need the checkout to test if the branch has a Jenkinsfile, but it currently needs the checkout to read the Jenkinsfile. If somebody were to write an implementation of SCMFileSystem (basically two files that could probably be hacked together from https://github.com/jenkinsci/gitea-plugin/blob/master/src/main/java/org/jenkinsci/plugin/gitea/GiteaSCMFile.java and https://github.com/jenkinsci/gitea-plugin/blob/master/src/main/java/org/jenkinsci/plugin/gitea/GiteaSCMFileSystem.java and https://github.com/jenkinsci/subversion-plugin/blob/master/src/main/java/jenkins/scm/impl/subversion/SubversionSCMSource.java#L389-L410 plus some experimentation) then you'd avoid that checkout. I don't have the time to do that, I suspect you may get further scratching your own itch. I am happy to review and provide advice if you want to give it a shot. Should be somewhere between 2h and 2d effort depending on your skill level and familiarity with Java (not too much Jenkins idioms required for this functionality, other than putting @Extension on your SCMFileSystem.Builder class - which, unlike my gitea example, can work for both SubversionSCM and SubversionSCMSource) On 9 October 2017 at 00:24, Gilad Baruchian <giladb...@gmail.com<mailto:giladb...@gmail.com>> wrote: Hi, I have a Jenkinsfile located in <my svn branch>\build folder, and it checks out code to the slave node and builds. My multi branch project finds the branch correctly, but it checks out the entire svn branch on the master just to read the jenkinsfile instead of checking out just the jenkinsfile itself of just <my svn branch>\build folder. This is a major problem because of storage and performance, are there any solutions for that? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Jenkins Users" group.
