How to trigger an email based on a specific condition for a successful build in Jenkins

your git plugin holds a env varible or you can make a env variable with branch name. then use the above solution to drop mail.

GIT Plugin provides you the env variable

GIT_BRANCH - Name of the remote repository (defaults to origin), followed by name of the branch currently being used, e.g. "origin/master" or "origin/foo"
