Bypass cached repository when pushing

Magnus Granande

Hi!

I'm having issues with doing Git push for both tags and commits when using a cached repository setup in Bamboo.

The scenario:

We are using a child plan that builds our application. During the bild we generate files and create tags. Both pushing the commits and the tags seem to work (no errors), but never show up in the logs at the remote (Stash). Found this in the logs:

build	08-Nov-2013 12:51:13	version  DONE pushing commit

build	08-Nov-2013 12:51:13	tagging  DONE pushing tag

The line with "To file://..." caught my eye. To me it looks like the push is done to the cache, and not to the actual remote.

So my question is this, is there a way to bypass/specify not to use the cache when pushing?

Have you tried specifying repository url? as in: git push <options> [repositoryUrl]

See also: https://www.kernel.org/pub/software/scm/git/docs/git-push.html

You can get repository url from variable: ${bamboo.planRepository.<repositoryNumber>.repositoryUrl}

where repositoryNumber is position of the repo in plan's repository list. (you can omit this for default repository)
