Re: `checkout scm` surprisingly fails when multibranch plugin is not installed I think Jesse misunderstood this ticket to be "xyz doesn't work and there's already a ticket for that but I'm filing another one." IMO what's really reported here is usability issues. The error message is cryptic, and it doesn't point people to the solution. It required the reporter to dig through Google, JIRA, and the source code of the plugin (gasp!) to get here. Clearly we don't expect our typical users to do that much to overcome one issue! I filed JENKINS-35308 and JENKINS-35309 as two usability issues that I got out of this. I want to thank c089 for bringing this issue to our attention.

I think Jesse misunderstood this ticket to be

Not sure what that means. I just meant, do not uninstall workflow-multibranch. It is in the default set of Pipeline plugins. Will look at linked tickets to see if they are feasible.
