The multibranch pipeline implementation on one or more of the branch providers intentionally narrows the refspec of the repository while cloning it into the workspace. The narrowed refspec usually includes only a single branch so that git does not waste effort retrieving changes that are not related to the branch being built. That narrow refspec
If you need more branches available in the workspace, you may need to use a checkout scm step within your pipeline definition that specifically chooses to use the wider refspec that you need for the additional branches you're trying to access. Refspecs are described in the "repostories" <https://plugins.jenkins.io/git/#using-repositories> section of the git plugin documentation and in the command line git documentation <https://git-scm.com/book/en/v2/Git-Internals-The-Refspec>. Example checkout steps can be generated with the Pipeline Syntax snippet generator <https://www.jenkins.io/doc/book/pipeline/getting-started/#snippet-generator> from your Jenkins controller. A brief video clip on using the snippet generator is linked from the git plugin documentation <https://plugins.jenkins.io/git/#pipelines>.
