I get build time out timeout error when git parameter plugin is trying to list tags in a git repo. As the build has versioning enabled, The listing of build tags is important so that it can help to checkout to a specific tag if something goes wrong or can decide on whether to increment to a new build tag. So, This issue happens before build is started. I tried to obtain git tags manually inside jenkins in ubuntu, which works perfectly fine. Now I wonder what goes wrong in UI as I can’t find any logs specific to working of a plugin (in my case git parameter plugin). I would like to see if there is a better way to debug this issue better , to either have some logs after the jobs are selected , when the git parameter plugin working in background , trying to fetch the git references before the build is triggered.
Currently, Since its not listing any tags, only build can be performed with default build tag set.
