Kristia Rosenvold edited a comment on JENKINS-15803 git polling mechanism can have build in infinite loop Temporarily change base class of GitException to a checked exception and it all becomes clear. Sorry about the line numbers, I was a few versions behind when I made the patch/issue git.getHeadRev buildChooser.getCandidateRevisions Both throw GitException in compareRemoteRevisionWithImpl The launchCommandIn GitAPI method throws GitException and is not able to distinguish why git fails (see http://stackoverflow.com/questions/4917871/does-git-return-specific-return-error-codes), unless one resorts to wicked screen scraping stuff.
