using GIT plugin: cannot clone submodule
 
|
Hello,
I have set up Jenkins and installed the GIT plugin (https://wiki.jenkins-ci.org/display/JENKINS/Git+Plugin). 1. First, I created a depot of my repository by executing: git clone --bare /home/git_repos/admin_pci.git /home/jenkins_bare_repos/admin_pci.git 2. Added the clone as the remote origin for the original so I can push to the clone: cd /home/git_repos/admin_pci.git git remote add origin /home/jenkins_bare_repos/admin_pci.git 3. Then created a job in Jenkins: selected GIT for "Source Code Management", Repository URL = /home/jenkins_bare_repos/admin_pci.git, "Branches to Build" = 'master', etc 4. Ran the job and got the following error: Started by user anonymous Building in workspace /var/lib/jenkins/jobs/admin_pci specs/workspace Checkout:workspace / /var/lib/jenkins/jobs/admin_pci specs/workspace - hudson.remoting.LocalChannel@4eeaabad Using strategy: Default Last Built Revision: Revision 0654d4080e49815ce1869bea3260ecfa2334f5fd (origin/app_testing) Fetching changes from 1 remote Git repository Fetching upstream changes from /home/jenkins_bare_repos/admin_pci.git Commencing build of Revision fee7f8c3386e79bd27459fb76b0085d679ec5012 (origin/master) Checking out Revision fee7f8c3386e79bd27459fb76b0085d679ec5012 (origin/master) FATAL: Command "git submodule update" returned status code 1: stdout: Cloning into vendor/plugins/secure_gate... stderr: Permission denied, please try again.

Is this a well known issue with GIT submodules? Any ideas how to resolve it? Thanks in advance. |

submodule indeed are only redirections to external repo and - as such - still point to the canonical git repository, even you created a local clone. I don't know any workaround but get access to the target repo.

I do have access to the target repo where the GIT submodule is. It's just that it asks for a password since it is shared repo accessible to developers via SSH. Seems the GIT plugin breaks on trying to clone the gitsubmodule since it has no way of knowing the SSH password, basically the GIT plugin hangs.
Any ideas whether this is supported as part of the GIT plugin somehow? Thanks

I would use passwordless SSH keys to access the submodule, in that case.

Indeed,
I've plan to integrate git-plugin with ssh-credentials plugin so it gets more flexible, but have no better workaround for short term

Is it a good idea then to not use the GIT plugin and instead clone the project and update the submodule in a Jenkins build step directly?
Thanks

In reply to this post by Emil Petkov
THis is exactly what I did to circumvent the problem, I will work without the GIT plugin until the SSH credentials are better integrated.
