无法使用 Ant Target 克隆 GIT 存储库

Question

I'm trying to write an Ant target to clone a git repository. Following is the Ant target. Here the ORGANIZATION is the name of the company, GROUP is the group name, and REPOSITORY is the name of the repository.

<target name ="clone">
     <sshexec host="github.ORGANIZATION.com"
        username="git"
        keyfile="${user.home}/.ssh/id_rsa"
        passphrase="pujain"
        trust="true"
        command="git clone git@github.ORGANIZATION.com:GROUP/REPOSITORY.git"/>
  </target>

I'm getting the following exception:

[sshexec] You appear to be using ssh to clone a git:// URL.
[sshexec] Make sure your core.gitProxy config option and the
[sshexec] GIT_PROXY_COMMAND environment variable are NOT set.

I'm able to execute the same command from cmd.

Answer 1

A proper SSH URL would be (for a private self-hosted GitLab server):

git@github.ORGANIZATION.com:GROUPNAME/REPOSITORY.git
                           ^^^^^^^^^^

There should be a ':', and a group or personal account, before the repo name.

What your sshexec taks is trying to do is:

• connect to host " git@github.ORGANIZATION.com:REPOSITORY.git " (which does not make sense)
• once connected to a remote server, execute git clone .

If your script needs to clone a GitLab repo, all you need is an exec task , not an SSH exec task.

<exec executable="git" dir="D:\" failonerror="true">
    <arg line="clone git@github.ORGANIZATION.com:REPOSITORY.git dest" />
</exec>

But that won't work with a passphrase-protected private key (unless it loaded in ssh-agent first).
You would be better off using read-only deploy key made just for that usage, without passphrase.

I don't think this belong in the host name? :REPOSITORY.git ?

Perhaps this will work?

<target name ="clone"> <sshexec host="github.ORGANIZATION.com" username="user" password="pass" passphrase="para" trust="true" command="git clone git@github.ORGANIZATION.com:REPOSITORY.git D:/dest" /> </target>

And just to clear things up, so, you want to connect to ssh server github.ORGANIZATION.com as user user and then run command git clone whatever D:/dest on that server. Is that right?
