jenkins git plugin cloning every time

I created one job for polling the Git Source code.

First time it should clone the repository, and after that if repository exist then it should only pull it.

See the following setting for job.

enter image description here

Problem: every time when i run this job it always clone's it rather then polling it.

I'm Checking on Fast remote polling, It says that repository should have only one branch. So for that i'm specifying the branch name.

What i'm missing here..?

There was a similar bug for Mercurial which pointed out to a credential issue.
So double-check the way your credentials are passed (either through the url or stored in a file, like a .netrc for hhtps)

The point is: fast polling should fetch/pull, not clone. See hudson.plugins.git.GitSCM#compareRemoteRevisionWithImpl().

            if (git.hasGitRepo()) {
                // Repo is there - do a fetch
                listener.getLogger().println("Fetching changes from the remote Git repositories");

                // Fetch updates
                for (RemoteConfig remoteRepository : paramRepos) {
                    fetchFrom(git, listener, remoteRepository);
                }

                listener.getLogger().println("Polling for changes in");
