Error when trying to configure Jenkins: hudson.plugins.git.GitException: Error performing command: git rev-parse --is-inside-work-tree

[Oana Rusu]

Hi all,

I have a Windows server running Jenkins and on that I configured a slave for Mac, as I want to run an iOS project on it.

My slave is now connected to the Windows server. 

I tried to add a new job that connects to my .git repository, but I get the followings errors. Can anyone help me figuring this out?

You either need to install command line git (msysgit) on your windows machine, or add JGit to the global Jenkins configuration and use JGit as the implementation instead of git.

Sorry, missed the reading of your log file.  Your MacOS slave needs to have the location of its "git" program configured in the node configuration.  Currently, Jenkins thinks that the correct git program for your MacOS slave is named "git.exe".  I suspect that the correct git program for your MacOS slave is named "git" rather than "git.exe".

Thanks!

Oana, on my OS-X slaves Git is located in /usr/bin/git. /usr/bin is in the path (run 'echo $PATH' in a terminal window) so I don't have to enter a location in the slave config. But if you needed to, this is where you do that:

That config page can be found at http://jenkins-server/computer/nodename/configure

Hi Curtis,

Could you please explain about the script to specify the git tool, I dont want to mention git tool location under node properties for slave.

Many thanks.

Parteek

[Mark Waite]

You probably have the Jenkins master node configured to specify git as git.exe.  remove the exe from the end of that on the master node and the slaves will follow.

Thanks Mark..it worked....

[Parteek Kumar]

Hi Mark,

Also please suggest same thing for maven and java, what is work around to specify the both these tools if I dont want to enter manually in Slave node properties.

Thanks,

Parteek
