Hmm, unfortunately I don’t believe the git material in GoCD has native support for reference repos.
Could the server not run a cron to do git fetch —all on the bare repo to keep it updated? Then all agents would pick up new changes so long as the volume holding the bare repo is mounted to agents. Otherwise, yeah, GoCD may not be a good fit for you until we build in support for —reference-repo if that’s a deal breaker.
