Title: Message Title

Alex Taylor created an issue   Jenkins / JENKINS-53134 Git checkout fails when using an SSH key with a passphrase Issue Type: Bug Assignee: Mark Waite Components: git-plugin Created: 2018-08-20 13:58 Environment: Jenkins core 2.121.2 and 2.107.x Git Plugin latest Git api latest Priority: Major Reporter: Alex Taylor Issue: A checkout from the master can not be performed when using a ssh key with a passphrase. It will hang on this step: > git fetch --tags --progress g...@github.com:alexanderrtaylor/support-kb-articles.git +refs/heads/*:refs/remotes/origin/* And eventually fail. Workaround: You can remove the passphrase and it will work normally Steps to reproduce: 1. Create a SSH key with a specific passphrase like `testing` and add it to Jenkins 2. Add ssh key to github 3. Create a job(freestyle or pipeline the behavior is the same) 4. Use the SSH key connect to the ssh location of the git url 5. Watch as the job fails. This works normally if I use a shell step to clone from the agent but the git plugin seems to be causing the issue Add Comment   This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v7.10.1#710002-sha1:6efc396) -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Jenkins Issues" group.
