Jenkins Git integration issue

Question

Installed Jenkins, Git plugin (window platform), then I will create a new item (maven project) in Jenkins.

While configure the git I'm getting the error

Project- Configure – Source code management – git Enter the repository url : https://github.com/zzzz/Sample.git

Getting below error

Failed to connect to repository : Error performing command: git.exe ls-remote -h https://github.com/zzzz/Sample.git HEAD

Jenkins – Manage Jenkins –configure system

git

Path to Git executable = git.exe In this section getting the below error

    There's no such executable git.exe in PATH: C:/ProgramData/Oracle/Java/javapath, C:/Windows/system32, C:/Windows, C:/Windows/System32/Wbem, C:/Windows/System32/WindowsPowerShell/v1.0/, C:/Program Files/Microsoft SQL Server/100/Tools/Binn/,
 C:/Program Files/Microsoft SQL Server/100/DTS/Binn/, C:/Program Files/Microsoft SQL Server/100/Tools/Binn/VSShell/Common7/IDE/, C:/Program Files/Microsoft SQL Server/110/Tools/Binn/ManagementStudio/, C:/Program Files/Microsoft SQL Server/110/Tools/Binn/, C:/Program Files/Microsoft Visual Studio 10.0/Common7/IDE/PrivateAssemblies/, C:/Program Files/Microsoft SQL Server/110/DTS/Binn/,  C:/Program Files/Java/bin, %M2_HOME%/bin, C:/Program Files/glassfish-4.0/bin.

Please help me to resolve.

Answer 1

For me it looks like, you don't have the Path, where git is installed in your Windows Path, so jenkins doesnt find git.exe . To resolve, you should look for your git installation and add the folder with git.exe inside to System path.

Answer 2

Go to Manage Jenkins > Global Tools Configuration .

Reconfigure your git executable path. Find the path where git is installed on your local machine and add this path upto the git.exe file in the required input field..
