How to clone a git repo with a different branch than master on Jenkinsfile

[Mario Rodriguez]

Hi, I have a very simple Jenkinsfile pipeline that uses "checkout scm" but I'm looking for a way to specify this command to use a different branch than master.

any ideas ?

thanks

One more thing:

You do not need to set all parameters on the new checkout.

Get common parameters through the available scm variable.

Getting the URL to git repository:

    final def repositories = scm.getRepositories()
    final def scmRepo = repositories.first()
    final def URI = scmRepo.getURIs().first().toString()

Then set

userRemoteConfigs: [[url: URI]]
