When using the Git plugin for Hudson my job always fails when fetching the latest sources from my online git repository ( git://github.com/ithena/orm2dsl.git ) .
The git plugin first executes git fetch succesfully. Then it tries to execute git checkout -f origin/ , which fails as shown below. Is this a problem with my git repository or is it the checkout command that makes no sense?
Git command whithout a branch set in the job configuration:
git checkout -f origin/ git checkout: updating paths is incompatible with switching branches/forcing Did you intend to checkout 'origin/' which can not be resolved as commit? Git command with branch set to master in the job configuration:
git checkout -f origin/master git checkout: updating paths is incompatible with switching branches/forcing Did you intend to checkout 'origin/master' which can not be resolved as commit? Hudson console output:
started Checkout [workspace] $ git fetch Checking out origin/ [workspace] $ git checkout -f origin/ git checkout: updating paths is incompatible with switching branches/forcing Did you intend to checkout 'origin/' which can not be resolved as commit?
