I have a pipeline Jenkins job which is working as expected, configured with the option "GitHub hook trigger for GITScm polling" for auto build on any push to git repo.

I have hooked this Jenkins URL for multiple git repo's say repo-A, repo-B, repo-B.
Jenkins job is triggering automatically on any code pushes to these repo's.

But I would like to know which repo has triggered the Jenkins job as it is configured to multiple git repo's at Jenkins level. Any help on this highly appreciated.

    You may refer to section *Environment variables* in jenkins online documentation: https://wiki.jenkins.io/display/JENKINS/Git+Plugin – Timothy Truckle Apr 17 '18 at 19:21
  • thanks for your help Timothy... i have tried to print below environment variables in my jenkins script which returns null always. **"env.GIT_BRANCH", "env.GIT_COMMIT" and "env.GIT_URL"** – Viren Sow Apr 18 '18 at 16:47

Following an example I found on Jenkins's bug tracker in one of the tickets (example stage), this is what works in my pipeline:

stage("checkout") {
  script {
    def git_params = checkout(...)
    println(git_params)
    env.REPO = git_params["GIT_URL"]
  }
}

git_params also included: GIT_AUTHOR_EMAIL, GIT_AUTHOR_NAME, GIT_BRANCH, GIT_COMMIT, GIT_COMMITTER_EMAIL, GIT_COMMITTER_NAME, GIT_PREVIOUS_COMMIT, GIT_PREVIOUS_SUCCESSFUL_COMMIT.

  • This is exactly what I shared in 2018. You added the "script" wrapper which allows declarative pipelines to use groovy code, like setting variables. Also instead of setting the result in an env variable, I would use a global field with @Field – fredericrous Mar 21 '21 at 08:43

You can get GIT Plugin variables as a return value of step checkout

ie: 

commit = checkout scm
println commit.GIT_URL

PS: your title should be "how to know which git repository and triggered the jenkins job". Indeed for getting a branch's name I would just get the value of env.BRANCH_NAME
