Problems with Bamboo, Git and submodules

[Pablo_Molnar]

Hi,

I setup a checkout task to pull one bitbucket project with submodules in Bamboo. I checked the submodules option but when it start to pull the submodules I get an error of permissin denied.

Why it has the right permissions to fetch the main project but not the submodules? (All of them are in bitbucket same account)

Full log details:

Thanks!

When handling submodules, Git does not ask Bamboo for the private key and just uses whatever is available in ~/bamboo/.ssh/ . Try adding your private key there.

How do you add files to ~/bamboo/.ssh?

What is the name of the file need to be?

How do you specify this file for the git authentication?

Will this work with bitbucket? (https://or ssh:// ? which?)

Do you mean to put this on the Elastic EC2 instance, then create a new 'image'?

What if I have a lot of changes in the "Capabilities" for the image? Do I need to redo them all over again?

It doesn't work with https protocols and private bitbucket repositories. Main repository which is being pulled from bitbucket via https: and username\password is working fine. Submodule which requires same authentication credentials - failing with fatal: Authentication failed for 'https://bitbucket.org/<teamname>/logging.git/'; Is there any workaround for this bug ?
