Title: Message Title

Stéphane Pelletier created an issue   Jenkins / JENKINS-32523 P4 plugin keeps triggering builds on the same Perforce changelist, even if no new changelist was submitted to Perforce. Issue Type: Bug Assignee: Unassigned Components: p4-plugin Created: 19/Jan/16 7:00 PM Environment: Jenkins version: 1.626, P4 Plugin version: 1.3.5 Priority: Major Reporter: Stéphane Pelletier I noticed that the P4 plugin keeps triggering builds on the same Perforce changelist even if no new changelist was submitted to Perforce. I had a look at the polling log and it seems like the "p4 counter change" command is used by the p4 plugin to determine the latest changelist available on Perforce ( see log at the end of this message ). This is probably wrong, since the Perforce doc (https://www.perforce.com/perforce/r12.2/manuals/cmdref/counter.html) says that this command returns "The last changelist number known to the Perforce service (the output of p4 counter change) includes pending changelists created by users, but not yet submitted to the depot. ". This probably explains the bug, since the plugin triggers a build as long as somebody has a pending changelist in his workspace whose changelist number is higher than the last submitted changelist.
