[JENKINS-69259] GITScm polling starts jobs for other events despite it should run only for a new tag released

[jenkins-infra-bot]

Pipeline is configured to run whenever a new tag is released in git repo. But sometime it runs multiple time for same tag.

We are using Github plugin for poll scm.

 

 

And in polling logs we  always see 'changes found' .

We are observing this issue from last one month. Before that it was working fine.
