    Description

      Summary

      The Bamboo Source Code Checkout task fails when Repository cache is stored on Windows using Cygwin Git. There has been some changes to Cygwin Git libraries and the way it handles the remote origin path. Bamboo needs to adapt to the recent changes made to Cygwin Git.

      Steps to Reproduce

      Install Bamboo Server or remote agent on a Windows machine using Cygwin Git.

      • Instructions on how to install Cygiwn Git here: Installing GIT on Windows (using Cygwin). If you are installing Cygwin for the first time, don't forget to:
        • Add Cygwin to Path (e.g. C:\cygwin64\bin).
        • Download all of the packages related to Git and OpenSSH while installing Cygwin.
        • Set the remote agent git binary path (e.g. C:\cygwin64\bin\git.exe).

      Trigger a manual build with a Source Code Checkout task to download code from your Git repository.

      • If you are using remote agents, check the option to enable remote agent caching.

      Expected Results

      Build will succeed.

      Actual Results

      Build fails with the following error message:

      Workaround

      Bamboo Remote Agents

      If this is happening on a Bamboo remote agent running on a Windows machine:

      • Advise users to switch to using Git for Windows as it's more reliable. We've had many problems with the Git implementation for Cygwin in the past and have opted to suggest Git for Windows as it's more stable, as seen on the Bamboo Supported Platforms.
      • Don't store the Git cache on the remote agent side. If we store the cache on the Bamboo Server side, it will be handled by the Git distribution installed on the server running Bamboo.

      Bamboo Server
      If this is happening to local agents and Bamboo Server is running on a Windows machine with Cygwin Git, please switch to using Git for Windows.
