• Link to relevant pull requests, esp. upstream and downstream changes
• Ensure you have provided tests that demonstrate the feature works or the issue is fixed

I've replayed the build using virtual machine agents as a way to avoid issue 4807

[MarkEWaite]

I tested with a locally built version. I confirmed that I can see the problem without this change and that the problem is fixed with this change. We can ask the issue submitters to test it further.

Thanks!

Thank you.

Any pointers on how/when this new release is included in the next release of the BOM?:

    <dependencies>
      <dependency>
        <groupId>io.jenkins.tools.bom</groupId>
        <artifactId>bom-${jenkins.baseline}.x</artifactId>
        <version>5054.v620b_5d2b_d5e6</version>

For the jenkinsci/gitlab-branch-source-plugin the version of io.jenkins.plugins:gitlab-api is defined by this BOM.

Bom is released weekly. Version can be overriding like https://github.com/jenkinsci/gitlab-branch-source-plugin/pull/508/files

Is there a specific concern that you have that should push us to release a new version of the BOM earlier than next Friday? Version override is easy to do if someone needs it (as noted by @jonesbusy ) and Jenkins runtime allows newer plugin versions to be installed and used without requiring a change to the plugin BOM.

[jmini]

Working with version override is OK for me as well.

Thank you!
