Re: Pipeline 'poll' option in checkout ignored if using libraries for sync
I'm seeing this bug as well. My pipeline checks out from 2 separate streams: The 1st is my app's source code, the 2nd is just various deployment tools that 's are synced from a shared library. My job is doing what I've come to call "runaway polling", where every time it polls, it thinks there's a new change and builds the project again.

Here is the code I'm using for the second checkout:

{{checkout changelog: false, poll: false, scm: perforce( //p4 options )}}

And despite this, the last lines of the polling log contain this:

{{P4: Polling on: master with:jenkins-master-jobName-deploy-scripts}}
{{Done. Took 0.65 sec}}
{{Changes found}}


I don't know why it's trying to poll even though I explicitly said not to, and I don't know why the polling is exiting immediately claiming it found changes, but the combination of this is resulting in "runaway polling".

{{checkout changelog: false, poll: false, scm: perforce( populate: syncOnly(), workspace: streamSpec(name: jenkins-${NODE_NAME}-${JOB_NAME}-deploy-scripts) )}}

This issue is still present with Jenkins 2.197 version.

checkout (for additional repositories) on a custom step defined in shared library with poll=false still polls for changes and triggers jenkins builds

Hi siddardha sarabu - Thanks. I'll test and get back to you.

Notes for me - is this also linked to JENKINS-56248?

Re: Pipeline 'poll' option in checkout ignored if using libraries for sync

Hi siddardha sarabu - I confirm this still occurs on 1.10.6:

Perforce Software Polling LogStarted on Nov 12, 2019 11:56:40 AM
no polling baseline in /var/lib/jenkins/workspace/JENKINS-47553-LibraryNoPoll@libs/my-shared-library on

The change that caused this was part of the //depot/no-poll path from the abive-example:

$ p4 describe -s 2124 Change 2124 by super@test_ws on 2019/11/12 11:56:36
   Submit of ./f2124
 Affected files ...
   ... //depot/no-poll/f2124#1 add

I believe this is the same issue as JENKINS-56248.
