- JENKINS-56903 - Add a health reporting metric for multibranch projects that only reports the health of the "primary" branch (as reported by the SCM)
- JENKINS-56917 -
Adds an extension point for organization folders that enabled the customization of the children of the organization
folder on every organization folder scan. There are three implementations provided:
- Child Health metrics which allows controlling the health metrics that the child multibranch projects will use. Previous behaviour was to always configure just the default health metrics relevant to a multi-branch project.
- Child Scan Triggers which enabled the customization of the scan
triggers for the child multibranch projects. Previous behaviour
was to initially configure this to once per day and never update
it. The new behaviour will now enforce the triggers defined
in Child Scan Triggers for the organization folder.
NOTE if you have been using some custom hack to change the multibranch scan triggers after initial creation, that hack is no longer needed... and in fact it will now cease to work
- Child Orphaned Item Strategy which allows the child multibranch projects to have a different orphaned item strategy from the parent organization folder. By default this property will use the Inherited strategy which retains the existing behaviour but you can configure a different strategy if you want branches to be retained on a different schedule from repositories.
- Jenkins core version bump to 2.138 LTS line
Released: 2019-04-04
- Set the revision even if the build does not happen. Enabling JENKINS-38552 -
- Migrated Chinese localization into localization-zh-cn
- Updated some test dependencies
Released: 2019-03-21
- JENKINS-56658 -
Changed API for BranchBuildStrategy to provide strategies with access to the task listener. Impact assessment:
- Change is binary compatible. At run-time plugins implementing the older API will be transparently detected and the legacy API methods invoked as appropriate.
- Change is not source compatible. Plugins implementing BranchBuildStrategy will need to update the overridden method when they update their compile time dependency on branch-api to 2.2.0

- JENKINS-39520 Error when dynamically installing multiple branch source plugins.
Released: 2016-09-23
- JENKINS-34564
Branch projects now get custom workspace paths inside the node’s
workspace
directory, capped by default at 80 characters and using only ASCII letters, numbers, and simple punctuation (in particular, no%
). - JENKINS-37219
Added a job property for overriding the implicit branch indexing
trigger flag, allowing a multibranch
Jenkinsfile
to customize its own triggering behavior after the initial build.
Some projects running external processes that cannot handle even
moderately long pathnames will not work with the new default workspace
locations. The system property
jenkins.branch.WorkspaceLocatorImpl.PATH_MAX
may be set to 0
to
restore the previous behavior (which will then break some processes
which cannot handle funny characters, or projects using long branch
names etc.). The default value is 80; values as low as 54 (but no lower)
are possible. When feasible, fix the external process to be more robust,
or on Windows use
\\?\
as a prefix before the remote filesystem root.
Another workaround in Pipeline scripts is to use the ws
step with an
absolute pathname. You can then choose any path, and concurrent builds
will still get distinct workspaces automatically; but you are on the
hook for finding a valid path on the node, unrelated projects might
overwrite each other’s workspaces between builds (reducing beneficial
caches of SCM checkouts and the like), and the custom workspaces will
not be automatically deleted if the branch project is deleted. The first
problem could be avoided by using a pathname like ../custom
rather
than an absolute path.
Note that the sshagent
Pipeline step (SSH Agent
Plugin) when
used inside an Image.inside
block (Docker Pipeline
Plugin)
will not currently work when the workspace path exceeds 108 characters,
due to a poor choice of constant in most Linux kernels:
JENKINS-36997.
A full fix should probably come in JENKINS-2111 for all project types.
