Minor I have a multibranch pipeline with a Jenkinsfile that contains the following git options :
options {
gitLabConnection('gitlab')
gitlabBuilds(builds: ['Checkout', 'Installation', 'Build', 'Cleanup'])
timestamps()
checkoutToSubdirectory('MyApplicationName')
}
The checkoutToSubDirectory() option has been added early 2018 : JENKINS-44277.
When I create a new branch, the first build fails because the checkout is not performed in the subdirectory mentionned above.
Here are logs for the first commit in a new branch :

The repository is checkout twice, the second time ignoring the subdirectory name provided. This behavior is only exhibited for the first commit in a new branch.
