[jira] [Commented] (SLING-11540) Always clear workspace

["Konrad Windszus (Jira)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SLING-11540?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=17579260#comment-17579260 ] 

Konrad Windszus commented on SLING-11540:
-----------------------------------------

I now configured the Git SCM Extension "Clean Checkout" in the GitHub Organization Job at https://ci-builds.apache.org/job/Sling/job/modules/configure. Unfortunately the new setting is not propagated to the existing multibranch jobs.
[~rombert] Any idea how to set the same via the step "properties" (https://www.jenkins.io/doc/pipeline/steps/workflow-multibranch/#properties-set-job-properties)?

I also found https://docs.cloudbees.com/docs/cloudbees-ci-kb/latest/client-and-managed-masters/how-to-customize-checkout-for-pipeline-multibranch but this approach seems deprecated now that https://issues.jenkins.io/browse/JENKINS-37658 is fixed.

> The build may fail after refactorings as the working directory on the node is not empty prior to the SCM checkout (and some folders are never overwritten by an SCM checkout).
> That leads to errors like the following:
> {code}
> ....

> {code}
> (the log is from https://ci-builds.apache.org/job/Sling/job/modules/job/sling-maven-plugin/job/master/129/consoleFull).
> This is due to the fact that the modules {{parent}} and {{relocate}} have been deleted, but their orphaned {{target}} directories are not removed and survive a build.
