Branch strategy on ci.jenkins.io diverges from prior configuration

[NotMyFault]

Service(s)

ci.jenkins.io

Summary

The previous configuration aborted branch builds, once a PR has been created (e.g., dependabot/renovate, or when working directly on the repository). That's no longer the case. Currently, if you create an upstream branch and a PR, both are built, doubling the prior workload.

Reproduction steps

No response

@NotMyFault for which job(s) do you see this behavior?

For the https://ci.jenkins.io/job/Core/ organization scanning, applying the following change (will trigger and indexation):

• Exclude archived repositories
• Orphaned Item Strategy
  -> Enable Abort builds
  -> Discard old items (no max day, no max items)

* Exclude archived repositories

* Orphaned Item Strategy

Applied recursively, the "Abort build" option is now present on each.

I did a quick demo earlier with jenkinsci/console-column-plugin#123:

The couple of checks weren't there before the update, coming from https://ci.jenkins.io/job/Plugins/job/console-column-plugin/job/yoho/2/, which built the branch separately to the PR.

For the https://ci.jenkins.io/job/Core/ organization scanning, applying the following change (will trigger and indexation):

• Exclude archived repositories

Shouldn't that be applied to every folder? We don't really need to index archived repositories anywhere.

Thanks! Applying to the "Plugins" org scanning (#3650 (comment)). Brace youselves.

100% agree with you. Worth working on #3071
