Answer 1

Instead of simply running chmod on your local system, it's better to run git update-index --chmod=+x path/to/file. This adds an executable flag to a file in Git and should ensure that a script can be executed inside a GitLab pipeline.

You have to either:

1- Run bash ./test.sh

OR

2- Add the line #!/bin/bash to the top of test.sh so that it knows to run it within bash
