setScmUrl

With jenkins pipeline the SCM_URL environment variable disappeared. One the one hand this is obvious since you can work with several scms in one pipeline, on the other hand this functionality is handy when you are working with one scm.

Calling this step will bring back this functionality by setting the SCM_URL to the best available value.

Variant 1 (using SCM config)

Assuming you are using the checkoutScm step in your project the SCM_URL will be automatically set by this step.

In this case the step tries to retrieve the SCM_URL from the config object:

import static io.wcm.devops.jenkins.pipeline.utils.ConfigConstants.*

setScmUrl(
    (SCM): [
        (SCM_URL): "git@domain.tld/group/project.git"
    ]
)

Variant 2 (GIT command line)

This variant is the fallback. By calling git config remote.origin.url the remote URL is retrieved and set to the environment variable
