Jenkins Git plugin

I've tried all sort of different things and I can't get jenkins to play nice with git.

I have setup my ssh keys and verified that I can ssh to the git hub and I get the message. I also, have tried w/o the .git extention. I've tried with user name in the url, user name and password in the url, and no username/passsord at all. Fails to matter waht.

I've also tried it with an admin user and a plain push/pull user.

The git repository I'm trying to hit is through an "organization" but I'm on a team that has access.

How does the Git client plugin work with Jenkins?

The Git Client plugins uses GIT_ASKPASS and creates a temporary script to execute when git prompts for credentials. This approach requires that the user running Jenkins or the Agent has the sufficient permissions (read/write/execute) on the temp folder. This has always been true for SSH Authentication.

What are the guidelines for repository URLs in Jenkins?

Repository URL's should follow the git URL guidelines. Git steps to access a secured repository should provide a Jenkins credential with the credentialsId argument rather than embedding credentials in the URL. Credentials embedded in a repository URL may be visible in console logs or in other log files.

How to use JGit with Git client plugin?

GitClient git = Git.with (listener, environment) .in (repository) .using (gitExe) .getClient (); Using "jgit" will force use of JGit implementation. The Git Client plugins uses GIT_ASKPASS and creates a temporary script to execute when git prompts for credentials.

How do I check for changes in a Jenkins repository?

Checkout from the Jenkins platform labeler repository using https protocol, no credentials, the master branch, and no polling for changes. If poll is false, then the remote repository will not be polled for changes. If poll is true or is not set, then the remote repository will be polled for changes.

Try using the r/w address for cloning private repos using ssh keys:

[email protected]:xxx/xx.git

If you pass the credentials on the URL, make sure they're URL encoded. Also make sure you're using Basic authentication.
