How do you customize the branch used with a linked repository in bamboo?

Robert Dailey_2kmuge

Using Bamboo 5.6, I setup a Linked Repository to Stash. However, it made me pick a branch. We have multiple release branches and I create 1 build plan PER release branch. However, I can't share the same linked repository in each of these build plans because the branch is hard coded to it. So I've had to add 1 linked repository for each different branch.

Is there a way to configure the branch used from a linked repository at the plan configuration level?

Is there a reason why you create a separate plan for each release branch? Have you considered using Plan Branches?

If for some reason Plan Branches are not an option (ie when release branches require different plan configuration) you can do the following:

• create new Plan for your release branch connecting to the same linked repository
• disable the plan
• go to Plan configuration / Branches and create a branch that will match your release branch
• make the branch enabled
