Git clone with SSH fails on Alpine linux

Ward Loos

I'm trying to clone a second repository with deployment config in my pipeline:

script: 
  - git clone git@bitbucket.org:<team>/<repo>.git /<repo>

I followed the steps listed here: https://confluence.atlassian.com/bitbucket/use-ssh-keys-in-bitbucket-pipelines-847452940.html

This works fine when I use a Debian based image (google/cloud-sdk). 

However, when I use an Alpine based image this fails. This is a private image based on devth/helm, I added ssh with:

RUN apk add --no-cache openssh-client

Error:

<span>Cloning into '/<repo>'...<br></span><span>Host key verification failed.<br></span><span>fatal: Could not read from remote repository.<br><br></span><span>Please make sure you have the correct access rights<br></span><span>and the repository exists.</span><span>+ git clone <a href="mailto:git@bitbucket.org" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">git@bitbucket.org</a>:<team>/<repo>.git /<repo><br></span>

 Do I need extra steps to get this to work on Alpine?

Found that devth/helm changes HOME which seems to interfere with the ssh config. Changed image to google/cloud-sdk:alpine and it works.
