Question

We use unfuddle to host our git repositories.
When we clone a repository, we use:

[e-mail]:oursubdomain/repositoryname.git

Jenkins is expecting a url however and says:

Specify the URL of this remote repository. This uses the same syntax as your git clone command.

In the advanced information for this it says:

Specify the repository to track. This can be a URL or a local file path. Note that for super-projects (repositories with submodules), only a local file path or a complete URL is valid. For instance, user@host:/path is not a valid URL

So, what I need to know is what URL I should specify to enable this to work. Or even, should I be able to get this to work? I have tried a few things but wondered if anyone had already solved this.

Additional information:

• I’m using https://wiki.jenkins-ci.org/display/JENKINS/Git+Plugin as
  the git plugin – Jenkins GIT plugin 1.1.23
• I’m using Jenkins on a
  windows machine – Jenkins ver. 1.482

Answer 1

After a few attempts, I finally worked out that the url

[e-mail]:oursubdomain/repositoryname.git

can be used as is, despite what the help suggested.

I have got this to work now, but did need to set up SSH keys etc for the local system account as per the instructions here
