Git publisher fails to push

[Patrick]

Hi All

I've been trying to use the GIT publisher to push the changes from my integration branch back to my origin/master branch (sort of like here: http://twasink.net/2011/09/20/git-feature-branches-and-jenkins-or-how-i-learned-to-stop-worrying-about-broken-builds/). I've managed to get the GIT plugin to perform the necessary merging but I can't get the publisher to push the data back into the origin/master. 

The build log shows this:

Checkout:workspace / F:\integration\jenkins\jobs\Utilities-Build\workspace - hudson.remoting.LocalChannel@42d2821b

While in the log it seems that the changes get pushed back nothing shows up in the origin/master branch.

My settings are:

Source code management: Git

    Repository 1:

        URL: D:\repository\utilities\code\integration

        Name: integration

    Repository 2:

        URL: D:\repository\utilities\code\master

        Name: origin

    Branches to build: integration/**

    Merge before build:

        Name: origin

        Branch: master

Publisher:

    Push only if build succeeds: selected

    Merge results : selected

    Branches:

        branch: master

        target: origin

Can anybody shed any light on this issue?

Thanks

I think you've found a bug in the Git publisher.  I see the same behavior after updating to Git client plugin 1.4.0 and Git plugin 1.3.0.  

Oddly, I think that the bug was not there in the Git plugin pre-release snapshot of 1.3.0 which I built on 2 March 2013.  That could indicate that the issue is in the Git client plugin, or that the issue was introduced between 2 March 2013 and the release of the 1.3.0 Git plugin.

If you urgently need the Git publisher, you may want to consider using the "Advanced" tab in the plugins section to install Git plugin 1.1.26.  I believe that is the Git plugin version prior to the refactoring which created the Git client plugin.

Refer to https://issues.jenkins-ci.org/browse/JENKINS-16940 for a Git publisher issue with versions of the plugin from 1.1.27 to 1.2.0.  That issue seems to be resolved with 1.3.0, though 1.3.0 shows the bug you've discovered.

Thanks,

Mark Waite

Thanks for the response. At the moment I'm in no great rush so I'll wait a bit for a new version of the Git plugin(s) to be released.

Thanks

I seem to have the same issue - is this still not fixed?
