[users at bb.net] 2 checkout steps in the same builder

[Francesco Di Mizio]

Hello guys,

my main checkout step is a p4 step. This is the repo that's got stuff I am
interested into having compiling and tested.


My build scripts are coming from github. When I add a git step to check
them out, Git step will no matter what use the branch property. Such a
property (say 'main') only makes sense for the p4 step. I need to use an
other property for the git step (like 'master') .

Docs say

@param branch: The branch or tag to check out by default. If
a build specifies a different branch, it will
be used instead of this.

So no matter what I pass to the step as branch, it'll still use the branch
property. Any idea how to work this around? Basically I dont have to build
a CI system around the git repo, ideally I'd just like to blindly check out
its branches.

On a side note: is that way renderables beheave (just like 'branch' is a
renderable for Git step)

Many thanks,
 Frank
