We are experiencing an issue where Jenkins prints every remote branch in 
our repository to the console in every build. Since we have several 
thousand remote branches, this creates a lot of clutter in console logs.

Example:

10:29:19   > git rev-parse HEAD^{commit} # timeout=10
10:29:20  Seen branch in repository origin/32_.....
10:29:20  Seen branch in repository origin/337.....
10:29:20  Seen branch in repository origin/359.....
10:29:20  Seen branch in repository origin/4k_.....
10:29:20  Seen branch in repository origin/API.....
10:29:20  Seen branch in repository origin/API.....
10:29:20  Seen branch in repository origin/API.....
10:29:20  Seen branch in repository origin/API.....
10:29:20  Seen branch in repository origin/API.....
10:29:20  Seen branch in repository origin/API.....
10:29:20  Seen branch in repository origin/API.....
10:29:20  Seen branch in repository origin/API.....
10:29:20  Seen branch in repository origin/API.....
10:29:20  Seen branch in repository origin/API.....
(and so on)
10:29:20  Seen 4,483 remote branches
10:29:20   > git show-ref --tags -d # timeout=10
10:29:20  JENKINS-19022: warning: possible memory leak due to Git plugin 
usage; see: 
https://wiki.jenkins-ci.org/display/JENKINS/Remove+Git+Plugin+BuildsByBranch+BuildData

Per JENKINS-22794 we have tried setting 
-Dorg.jenkinsci.plugins.gitclient.GitClient.quietRemoteBranches=true 
in /etc/default/jenkins and confirmed that it is in fact loaded in the 
cmdline, but Jenkins insists on printing all remote branches.

>From the source 
<https://github.com/jenkinsci/git-client-plugin/blob/stable-2.8/src/main/java/org/jenkinsci/plugins/gitclient/CliGitAPIImpl.java#L2202>
 
it's pretty clear that this should work, but it doesn't.

Jenkins version: 2.176.1 

OS: Debian 9

Git client plugin version: 2.8.0

Thank you for any help.
