Thanks, in between I created another project, that was the same as the original 
(with the history issue), but without the "Shallow clone" option.
Now the changed file list is as expected, "correct". Only listing the actually 
changed versions between commits.

I created a new job with the same settings, except:

- the new job had default GIT options

With the new job, the second issue (all files listed as added) is not present.
So it is a bug in git-client with the nondefault options?

For the record, the different settings in the old job regarding git are:

- Advanced / "Refspec" is not blank (as per default), but: 
+refs/heads/my_branch:refs/remotes/origin/ my_branch
- "Additional Behaviours" has an "Advanced clone behaviours" item with values:
"Honor refspec on initial clone" enabled
"Shallow clone" enabled

Shallow clone causes git to request only the depth of commits specified.  
Changelog history is computed from the history in the local copy of the 
repository.  If the history in the  local copy of the repository   is shallow, 
then it is entirely possible that the history does not exist in that local copy.

The third issue (file list look) is still present in the new job, while the 
first (changes list) was not tested as only one commit was done between latest 
en previous build.

Subject: git job weirdness (in Changes)

Hi!

I have set up a job in Jenkins v2.387.2 with sources from git and a maven build 
step.

Last time I committed and pushed two changes into the repo. (one push after 
both commits) The Jenkins job detected the change and started a build.

Issues:
- the changes page in Jenkins ( /view/foo/job/my_job/changes ) shows only the 
second change (the commit message and the author).
Clicking the "detail" link opens /view/foo/job/my_job/4/changes#1234_the_hash 
where again only the second commit is mentioned.
The files on disk (in the workspace) have the correct content (from both 
commits).

- on the above details/summary page, there is a list of many files from the 
repo/working tree with the plus icon prepended
It seems almost every file in the repo (in the branch I checked out) is listed.
This is the same for a previous build too, which was also triggered by SCM 
change and has one file actually changed.
And the build before that.
This job has 4 builds, and the 3 after the initial build all have this issue of 
all files being listed, instead only the changed ones.

- on the details/summary page, the "changed" files listed are in black, 
slightly bold font, but when hovering the mouse over each , that line turns 
blue and underlined (similar to links), clicking on it has no effect.

Questions:
- why are not both changes (or in general: all changes since previous build) 
listed?
- why are all files listed, not just the changed ones?
- why the blue underlined text?


Regards,
Lep pozdrav,
David Balažic
