I asked the same question on stack overflow but I only got 5 views, I think this is a better forum for this question.
I'm setting up CI for a C# project hosted on github in a private repo. Git is installed on master CentOS machine, MSBuild on slave windows.
I've created account on github, and added it to my private repo. When I'm setting up source control on Jenkins, I've entered URL (as https://github.com/.../repo.git) and entered credentials with the new account.
Jenkins reports:
Failed to connect to repository : Command "git config --local credential.helper store --file=/tmp/git2956041026506359040.credentials" returned status code 129:
stdout:
stderr: error: unknown option `local'
usage: git config [options]
Config file location
--global use global config file
--system use system config file
-f, --file <FILE> use given config file
Action
--get get value: name [value-regex]
--get-all get all values: key [value-regex]
--get-regexp get values for regexp: name-regex [value-regex]
--replace-all replace all matching variables: name value [value_regex]
--add adds a new variable: name value
--unset removes a variable: name [value-regex]
--unset-all removes all matches: name [value-regex]
--rename-section rename section: old-name new-name
--remove-section remove a section: name
-l, --list list all
-e, --edit opens an editor
--get-color <slot> find the color configured: [default]
--get-colorbool <slot>
find the color setting: [stdout-is-tty]
Type
--bool value is "true" or "false"
--int value is decimal number
--bool-or-int value is --bool or --int
--path value is a path (file or directory name)
Other
-z, --null terminate values with NUL byte
If I log into master and try the same command on root console I get the same error, --local is not an option for git config.
