What are the @tmp folders in a Jenkins workspace and how to clean them up
There is an opened Jenkins issue about deleteDir() not deleting the @tmp/@script/@... directories.
A workaround to delete those:
post {
always {
cleanWs()
dir("${env.WORKSPACE}@tmp") {
deleteDir()
}
dir("${env.WORKSPACE}@script") {
deleteDir()
}
dir("${env.WORKSPACE}@script@tmp") {
deleteDir()
}
}
}
There is also a comment on the issue describing what @tmp is:
It [@tmp folder] contains the content of any library that was loaded at run time. Without a copy, Replay can't work reliably.
The Foo@2 Foo@2@tmp folders were created because the agent was defined 2 times. Once it was defined at the top level inside the pipeline block. And once inside the stage called build. The working folder of stage 'build' is the Foo@2 folder.
