Yocto Recipe - Trying to fetch source from private Azure GIT repository

Question

`Hi

I am in the process of creating a yocto Recipe that will fetch the source from a private Azure GIT repository. SSH URL works on UBUNTU as a standalone, I don't see any issues while cloning via SSH URL using GIT commands or GIT GUI.

However, the do-fetch() function fails when the recipe tries to fetch using the same SSH URL used for SRC_URI

I am not sure why fetch fails here, is there any specific syntax or procedure that needs to be followed to fetch a private GIT repository?

Any help on this will significantly help us

SSH URL which works on UBUNTU

git@ssh.dev.azure.com:v3/CompanyName>/ProjectName/TestYoctoSourceUri

SRI command used in my recipe

SRC_URI = "git://git@ssh.dev.azure.com:v3/CompanyName/ProjectName/TestYoctoSourceUri;pocrotol=ssh;branch=master;destsuffix=git/common "

Have changed.SSH configuration to add SSH key and port number

Host dev.azure.com

HostName dev.azure.com

Port 443

PreferredAuthentications publickey

IdentityFile ~/.ssh/id_rsa``

Answer 1

As far as I know, the character : in the URL is not supported in Yocto Recipe.

You can try to replace the : with / in the URL.

For example:

SRC_URI = "git://git@ssh.dev.azure.com/v3/CompanyName/ProjectName/TestYoctoSourceUri;pocrotol=ssh;branch=master;destsuffix=git/common"
