Thanks Darn - this is a very clear and useful explanation of the multi branch pipeline.

[garethjones]

Exceptional video, very clear. I didn't quite understand the set-upstream option passed to git push, but is something I can look up. Thanks for the timecodes, made the video very easy to navigate, and go back through.

ISTG, Darin always gives us an exceptional tutorial on everything.

[garytrickett]

Short and to the point, very good presentation.

[IsraelAlvesLucena]

how do i parameterize multi-branch pipeline job? I want the last stage of my multibranch pipeline to be to run end-to-end automation for which i need to update parameters. How do i do this in multi-branch pipeline using jenkins yaml instead of groovy?

[mbonithomas]

This is an awesome tutorial. But i am new to devops. How do you update the jenkinsfile to reflect the multi branch mechanism?(for example, have 3 branch in the tutorial and build only on main. All outlined in the jenkinsfile)

[javierllanes]

tanks for the detailed explanation. I would like to know how can implement to have an only one versionated jenkinsfile, to apply to all branch's and avoid with this, to have to mantain and modify many jenkinsfile one per each branch. Thank you

[alan-j]

Good one Darin. Can you also show how not to run the job by default when a scan happens.

[fredsnest]

From what I've seen, there is implicit checkout of the codes when using multibranch pipeline, similar to how it's done in a single branch pipeline. However, for Jenkins version 2.401.2, implicit checkout is still happening with single branch pipeline but not anymore with multibranch pipeline. I have to add explicit checkout. I'm using scripted pipeline by the way, I'm not sure if that makes a difference.

27:40 What if you don't scan and click build on `fix-123` ?

[priyankapatel]

how can configure single Jenkinsfile for all branches ?

[vadimsmilansky]

your shell prompt reflect git branch and status. I wiull be happy to see how you configure that

[stdio]

I want to store all jenkinsfile in a different repository outside the branches. Is that possible?

[keratishvili]

great content could you make some gitlab integration with jenkins tutorials there are not many to follow.

[manisangareddy]

Hi, Can we use single Jenkinsfile for all branches instead of creating Jenkinsfile in each branch

[jintao]

I thought I the only one still using vi lol
