YAML have checkout task by default without any configuration. https://docs.atlassian.com/bamboo-specs-docs/6.9.2/specs.html?yaml#task-repository-checkout

Feature request https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/BAM-20529 to configure more options to the checkout task

Maybe some actual yaml example code in the Reference Docs would be great.

I'm reviewing the reference docs right now and I need to do a simple checkout.

* Add CheckoutItem objects. You will specify the repository and the path where it will be checked out. You can add multiple CheckoutItem.
* Decide if task should perform a clean checkout. If set, the task will remove contents of each specified folder before checking out the source code.

That's straight out of the Reference Documentation. There is no example of where or how CheckoutItem should be used and how the options for it like clean checkout should be applied. Incredibly poor documentation.

Unfortunately my team doesn't have Java experience, besides myself so just switching to Java spec isn't an option.

Thank you for the response, given the limitations, i switched to java specs to build the pipeline.
