Fails to parse git URL when repo uses SSH URL

Closed this issue · 3 comments

When running jx admin operator inside a repository cloned using the SSH URL, the following error is returned:

error: failed to ensure the git URL is valid: failed to parse git URL git@github.com:user/repository-name.git: parse git@github.com:user/repository-name.git: first path segment in URL cannot contain colon

This can be worked around by using --url https://github.com/user/repository-name.git

If this an intended limitation (i.e. Jenkins X cannot access the git repo using the SSH URL), then the documentation may need to be updated to clarify this. If not, then the git URL parsing may need to be updated.

Notes:

  • It looks like the underlying error comes from url.Parse because the git@github.com is not a valid URL

@jmmk extracted from https://jenkins-x.io/v3/admin/platforms/on-premises/#getting-started:

git clone the new repository via HTTPS and cd into the git clone directory

so clone via HTTP is a must

Yeah, https is a must and the documentation says as much. Closing.
