[JENKINS-48927] BuildData is not correct if same scm used but with different branches.

I configured job with multiscm plugin and used same github project but with different branches.

But branch for second project is not correctly identified because BuildData object is not correctly returned here:

public @​CheckForNull BuildData getBuildData(Run build) {

    BuildData buildData = null;

    while (build != null) {

List buildDataList = build.getActions(BuildData.class);

for (BuildData bd : buildDataList) {

    if (bd != null && isRelevantBuildData(bd)) {

buildData = bd;

break;

    }

}

if (buildData != null) {

    break;

}

build = build.getPreviousBuild();

    }


    return buildData;

}

Guilty method is 

isRelevantBuildData as under the hood it checks like this:

return remoteUrls.contains(remoteUrl);

and it doesn't honour branch name.

So I think the proper fix is to add somehow branch name here.

Raw content of original issue

I configured job with multiscm plugin and used same github project but with different branches.


But branch for second project is not correctly identified because BuildData object is not correctly returned here:



public @CheckForNull BuildData getBuildData(Run build) {

    BuildData buildData = null;

    while (build != null) {

        List<BuildData> buildDataList = build.getActions(BuildData.class);

        for (BuildData bd : buildDataList) {

            if (bd != null && isRelevantBuildData(bd)) {

                buildData = bd;

                break;

            }

        }

        if (buildData != null) {

            break;

        }

        build = build.getPreviousBuild();

    }


    return buildData;

}



Guilty method is 


isRelevantBuildData as under the hood it checks like this:



return remoteUrls.contains(remoteUrl);





and it doesn't honour branch name.


So I think the proper fix is to add somehow branch name here.
