git-http-backend git clone problem

[Obss Sysadmin]

Hello,

When we try to clone the repo using the git tool, we get the following error. The git version we are using is 2.33.1, but there is a problem.

ERROR:

Just did verify that, it is possible to use git 2.33.1 together with Bitbucket 7.15.1 without any issues, so most probably the git version you had installed was not able to find the git-http-backend (so the suggested workaround should help like described in the KB article)

Cheers

The problem is that bitbucket version 7.15.1 does not support git version 2.33. I fixed the problem with the following commands. Hope it helps those who encounter this problem.

sudo apt-get remove git
sudo apt-get remove --auto-remove git
sudo apt-get purge git
sudo apt-get purge --auto-remove git apt install liberror-perl git-man=1:2.25.1-1ubuntu3.2 git=1:2.25.1-1ubuntu3.2
