YAML - How to define a JOB that does not pull down source code?

[Simon Hooper]

I have a multi stage pipeline set up in YAML as follows working well.

• Stage 1
  • checkout source and build
• Stage 2
  • Run tests for proj A
  • Run tests for proj B
  • Run test for proj (n)

I noted however the JOBS in Stage 2 all pull down source code as their first task. How can I specify a JOB to NOT pull down source code using YAML?

First task of any job configured by YAML specs is checkout task. There's no way to skip it.

IMO this is a bug, not a feature request.
