Jenkins / JENKINS-32658 Multibranch pipeline 'checkout scm' does not handle Git submodules Issue Type: Bug Assignee: Jesse Glick Components: workflow-plugin Created: 27/Jan/16 6:49 PM Labels: multibranch git git-submodule Priority: Minor Reporter: Colin Bennett When using a Multibranch Pipeline job type, the Jenkinsfile in the SCM repository branch being built contains the statement checkout scm. But if the Git repository contains submodules, they are not initialized or updated in the Jenkins build workspace. Typically submodule initialization/updating is automatically handled by the Git SCM for Jenkins Freestyle jobs. Workaround You can call the git executable manually from the Jenkinsfile pipeline DSL, like this: checkout scm execute 'git submodule update --init' Add Comment

You can call the {{git}} executable manually from the Jenkinsfile pipeline DSL, like this:

{noformat}         checkout scm         execute         bat  'git submodule update --init'      // or sh {noformat}

Re: Multibranch pipeline 'checkout scm' does not handle Git submodules I think you would need to configure the SCM source to include the submodule extension.

Re: Multibranch pipeline 'checkout scm' does not handle Git submodules

Jesse Glick how to set the extension config on scm? I can create a custom checkout(...) call. but than it makes no sense in a multibranch project with Jenkinsfiles.

Re: Multibranch pipeline 'checkout scm' does not handle Git submodules

[~jglick] how to set the extension config on scm? There is no function in GitSCM class to set the extensions except with the constructor. I can create a custom checkout(...) call. but than it makes no sense in a multibranch project with Jenkinsfiles.

Re: Multibranch pipeline 'checkout scm' does not handle Git submodules This workaround does not always work. The scm credentials used to check out the repository are not available in the sh line so you can get an access denied. Is there any way to execute the submodule command in the same context as the `checkout scm` is being run?

Re: Multibranch pipeline 'checkout scm' does not handle Git submodules

There is a solution for that using the approaches described in https://support.cloudbees.com/hc/en-us/articles/226122247-How-to-Customize-Checkout-for-Pipeline-Multibranch Problem for us is that calling checkout([         $class: 'GitSCM',....]) seems to create the "impression" that another repo is used. We get the error None or multiple repos when we call "bitbucketStatusNotify(...)"

Re: Multibranch pipeline 'checkout scm' does not handle Git submodules I ran into this problem today, submodules not being checked out, and the problem in my case was that I added the submodules to use ssh, but the multibranch pipeline uses https to do the git checkout. Once I updated my .gitmodules to use https urls it worked fine.
