[JIRA] (JENKINS-13051) Setting branch name prevents branch from building

Adam Westhusing created JENKINS-13051:
-----------------------------------------

             Summary: Setting branch name prevents branch from building
                 Key: JENKINS-13051
                 URL: https://issues.jenkins-ci.org/browse/JENKINS-13051
             Project: Jenkins
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: git
         Environment: Windows Server 2008 R2
            Reporter: Adam Westhusing
            Assignee: Nicolas De Loof
            Priority: Critical


It appears a bug has been introduced in Git plugin 1.1.16:

If I set the branch specifier in the "Branches to Build" section, I always get the following error.

ERROR: Couldn't find any revision to build. Verify the repository and branch configuration for this job.

The only way I found to resolve this is to get rid of the branch specifier and replace it with **.  However, I only want to build a specific branch in our Git repo, so in the meantime I've rolled back to 1.1.15 where this functionality is working just fine.

-----------------------------------------

I have noticed this too.  It seems to actually be replacing the variable with the job name.

------------------------------------

I see this too, with git 1.7.0.4 (on Cygwin 1.7.5), git plugin 1.1.16, Jenkins 1.437. I updated the git plugin yesterday and lots of jobs are now failing with this error. It's pretty much a show-stopper for me, so will roll back to 1.1.15 in the meantime.

+1: Server 2008 R2, x64, Git-1.7.9-preview20120201, Jenkins 1.458. Rollback to 1.1.15 fixed for me as well.

----------------------------------------

This is definite show-stopper.  Rolling back to 1.1.15 fixes the problem for me as well.

I'm not familiar with the codebase, but browsing through the diffs for 1.1.16, this particular change pops out at me as a possible culprit:

Milutin Jovanovic commented on JENKINS-13051:
---------------------------------------------

A workaroung that works for me is to spacify two branches to build, first master and then the one I actually want to build. Interestingly, only one branch is built this way, the second one.

-------------------------------------------

I was able to work around this issue with the latest plugin (1.1.17) by using the branch name as **/master.  However, this only works if you are only working with one repository.

Rolling back to 1.1.15 from 1.1.18 fixes the problem for me as well (on windows Server 2008 x64 SP2).
I am using Jenkins 1.463
