Title: Message Title

Dominik Bartholdi created an issue   Jenkins / JENKINS-50815 beside GIT_BRANCH also expose it as BRANCH Issue Type: Improvement Assignee: Mark Waite Components: git-plugin Created: 2018-04-16 08:39 Priority: Minor Reporter: Dominik Bartholdi jenkins declarative pipeline has a nice  condition to check for branch names: stage('build Snapshot') {     when { not { branch 'master' } }           steps {          sh 'mvn clean install -Dmaven.test.failure.ignore'   } } unfortunate, it only checks for the branch name in `env.BRANCH`. Sure, I can use something like this: when { _expression_ { return env.GIT_BRANCH == "master" } } but that's not as nice as the former... The other solution for this would be, the pipeline-model-definition-plugin would check for multiple variables (BRANCH_NAME, BRANCH, GIT_BRANCH) and maybe throw an error in case they define different values (except for null). This does not sound like a big issue, but for sure it will make a lot of things easier to understand, e.g. why would the condition behave different in a multibranch job then in a normal job? please also see JENKINS-50622  Add Comment   This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v7.3.0#73011-sha1:3c73d0e) -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Jenkins Issues" group.
