Triggering pipeline builds when a commit is pushed to a branch or when a tag that matches a regex is pushed.

[Francis Chuang]

Hey all,

I have a question with configuring Jenkins that I have been struggling 
with for a while. We are using Jenkins 2.150.1.

My jenkinsfile looks like this:
pipeline {
    agent {
        node {
            label 'some-node'
        }
    }

    environment {
        COMPOSE_PROJECT_NAME = "${env.JOB_NAME}-${env.BUILD_ID}"
    }

    options {
        timeout(time: 40, unit: 'MINUTES')
    }

    stages {
        stage('Build Site') {
            when {
                branch 'test-site'
            }
            steps {
                ...
            }
        }

        stage('Build Javadoc') {
                        when {
                                buildingTag()
                        }
            steps {
                ...
            }
        }

        stage('Deploy Site') {
            when {
                branch 'test-site'
            }
            steps {
               ...
        }

        stage('Deploy Javadoc') {
                        when {
                                buildingTag()
                        }
            steps {
                ...
            }
        }
    }
    post {
        always {
            sh 'docker system prune --force --all'
        }
    }
}

I want to run a pipeline when a commit is pushed to a branch. I am able 
to do this by setting "Branches to build" to `refs/heads/test-site`.

However, I also need to build a pipeline when a tag that matches a regex 
is pushed. I tried adding a refspec following 
https://mohamicorp.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/DOC/pages/136740885/Triggering+Jenkins+Based+on+New+Tags 
, however it doesn't trigger the build.

Does anyone have any tips for how to get this to work?

Francis
