-------------------------------------------
Summary: GitPublisher won't work as promote action
Key: JENKINS-12659
URL: https://issues.jenkins-ci.org/browse/JENKINS-12659
Project: Jenkins
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: git
Affects Versions: current
Environment: Linux CentOS
Reporter: Alexandre Normand
Assignee: abayer
Promote actions list GitPublisher as one of the available items. However, when
configured as a promote action, GitPublisher always fails. I remote debugged
GitPublisher to find out why and it turns out that build.getProject().getScm()
is a NullSCM instead of a GitSCM instance. I'm assuming that somehow, the SCM
instance doesn't apply to promote (the SCM is configured to a valid git
repository in the job config and the pulls are done without problems).
Since we're used to have tagging done on build promotion and it's a valid use
case, I think it would be nice if either:
1. Promote actions would also get access to the GitSCM instance to be able to
perform the operation.
2. The GitPublisher could be given enough information to create a GitSCM
instance and tag when under promote (repository url, commit hash matching the
promoted build).
I've looked a bit at the GitPublisher code and I'm willing to do some work but
I would like some input as to the best solution.
