Trigger a multibranch scan. The scan log shows <code>Checking branch fix/foo</code> and immediately moves to the next branch with no verdict line. No job appears under the multibranch. No build fires. Other branches scan and build normally.</p> <p>This is Jenkins&rsquo;s branch source plugin silently skipping a branch because its internal cache treats the name as a duplicate of a previously-deleted entry. The cache survives plugin restarts, multibranch rescans, and <code>kubectl rollout restart jenkins</code>. The reliable recovery is to push the same commits under a different branch name — the cache has no entry for the new name and processes it cleanly.</p>
