This pull request introduces a configurable indexingTimeout parameter to the gitlab-branch-source plugin in Jenkins, enabling users to set a maximum wait time in seconds for indexing GitLab repositories. This timeout is applied in two key methods:
retrieve(SCMHead head, TaskListener listener): Updated to use an ExecutorService and Future, allowing the operation to be cancelled if it exceeds the specified timeout.
retrieveActions(SCMSourceCriteria criteria, SCMHeadObserver observer, SCMHeadEvent<?> event, TaskListener listener): Modified to respect the indexingTimeout configuration across the indexing process, including checks on branches, merge requests, and tags.
Additionally, a new indexingTimeout property has been added to the UI configuration in the config-detail.jelly file, enabling users to set the timeout through Jenkins' interface.
Testing Done
Manual tests were conducted to validate indexingTimeout functionality in various scenarios:
Defined Timeout (greater than 0): A sample timeout was set, and it was verified that the operation would be interrupted if it exceeded the specified time.
Undefined Timeout (0): Confirmed that the operation continued without interruption when indexingTimeout was set to 0.
Regression: Tested across different projects and merge requests to ensure the new functionality did not interfere with standard GitLab indexing.
