[JENKINS-48359] Jenkins triggers wrong branch build.

Hi guys, i have a pipeline configuration like the image attached. But I got multiple branch builds triggered when merge from master to release branch. Jenkins triggered master job and release job at the same time.

1. I have 3 branches: master/release/production


2. Configuration on jobs with pipeline
   
   
   
   • configuration for master https://gyazo.com/e7e34ad74ee9aa0bf765f6d556fa73d6
   
   
   • configuration for release https://gyazo.com/be4b72a963ca61a3ca8724223200a24d
   
   
   • configuration uses to listen PR hook with Jenkins PR builder plugin https://gyazo.com/b97e7d5aa366afc57c4dafdf31c78163
   
   
   
   


3. Reproduce
   
   
   
   • create PR 1 to merge into master, then merge it
   
   
   • create PR 2 to merge into master
   
   
   • create PR 3 to merge from master to release
   
   
   • Jenkins will trigger 4 jobs: master/release/production/default with GHPR builder instead of trigger 1 job of PR 2
   
   
   
   

What i expect:

• Jenkins trigger only 1 job of PR2


• After i merge PR2, Jenkins trigger the job of branch master


• After i merge PR 3, Jenkins trigger the job of branch release

Thank you
