The standalone automation jobs should have a configurable repo/branch URL about robottelo-ci HOT 8 CLOSED

👍

Also it should ability to point to a specific branch other than master.

from robottelo-ci.

the way jenkins grabs the repo:

git fetch <repo> <sha1-of-commit-of-interest>

from robottelo-ci.

The SCM plugin offers some ways to configure what should be fetched. What I can remember now is that it allows environment variables to define the branch to use. Still need to research about the repository.

As a alternative approach is to call git commands on a shell builder in order to point to the required repository and commit/tag/branch.

I tested the following config and it works:

Created new String Parameter named GIT_PROJECT (default could be SatelliteQE) and adjusted SCM Repository URL to:

https://github.com/${GIT_PROJECT}/automation-tools.git

from robottelo-ci.

We should also add the possibility to change the branch.

Also the repository for standalone automation is robottelo not automation-tools.

@rplevka PR #223 should take care of this. Do you need anything else here?
