verbose mode for git plugin doesn't seem to work

[Florin Andrei]

Using Jenkins 1.593, Git plugin 2.3.2, Java 1.8.0_11, RHEL 7.0 for the master. Job is running on a Ubuntu 14.04 slave.

A git fetch command (getting the source code tree before build) fails mysteriously with very sparse output:

git -c core.askpass=true fetch --tags --progress g...@github.com:FooBar/eeny-meeny.git +refs/heads/*:refs/remotes/origin/*

ERROR: Error fetching remote repo 'origin'

ERROR: Error fetching remote repo 'origin'

There's no clue as to why it fails. I am trying to enable some kind of verbose mode to figure it out. I've added this option to the command line for Jenkins on the master:

-Dhudson.plugins.git.GitSCM.verbose=true

But it makes no difference, I get the same cryptic output.

What else can I try to make git more verbose?

In that case, the only thing you can do to make the plugin more verbose is to install a pre-release version of the plugin which resolves https://issues.jenkins-ci.org/browse/JENKINS-27567 .  

Instructions at the end of several bug reports (including https://issues.jenkins-ci.org/browse/JENKINS-27093) will tell you where to find a pre-release of the plugin that you can download.  That has the added benefit of helping the community prepare for the next release of the plugin.
