multi configuration project with different git branches
kabustalek
Can someone tell me whats the best way to checkout different git branches on a multi configuration project? i have a project (lets call it API) which has a java 1.6 branch and a java 1.7 branch, so i created a new multi configuration project with JDK1.6 and JDK1.7 (soon there will be a JDK1.8 i guess). how can i now configure the git checkout in jenkins to checkout a different branch regarding on the parameter? at the moment, jenkins always checks out the 1.6 branch because the API project is configured to use ** as repository. Unfrotunately i can not define it on sub-project basis.
Regards,
Oli

Your setup is more akin to requiring multiple jobs than a multi config job. As the source you want to build is different.
As it is different you will want to build only the branch that changed on any commit, not all of them.
Alternativly you can have a single normal job and have git checkout whichever branch changed – however I do not recommend this as trend reports become meaningless (and you may have different people maintinaing different branches and so want to change other settings like email notification etc.)
