Thank you, Daniel and Mark. Unfortunately, none of these things are documented. At least that I know of. That's when I actually put sh "ls" in the pipeline script to list. When I found my files, I assumed everything is taken care by Jenkins.
Coming to checkout - how can I make out that I checkout the correct branch. As everything is happening automatically. I cannot predict what branch name an user would check-in with. I see that Jenkins itself is checking out the branch that has changed.
