Re: [IBMiOSS] Git clone - Unable to find remote helper for http(s) -- OPENSOURCE

Yeah I understand but it's not an option on this git server. We don't need to clone often so the workaround is to clone onto a PC then copy to the IFS.

Agreed, and it's coming. I was just trying to help you get over the hurdle
until it gets here.

I can't use the git URL to access these repos. They are on an internal

git server that does not support the "git" protocol - only http(s) and
ssh :(

I've run internal Git servers on IBM i and can access them using ssh. For
example,

$ git clone git@ibmi_ip:/repos/test.git

It needs an HTTP/S-capable cURL (or similar). I've submitted an RFE
to get this fixed but I couldn't get to the RFE site this morning so I
don't have a link for people to vote :-(

Work around is to use the git URL to access remote repos instead of

https.

We seem to have acquired a problem with Git on the IBMi in that we
can no longer clone a repo (using http or https). It is hard to
know when this happened because we don’t very often clone a repo on
an IBMi (just commit/push/pull).

Example:

git clone --progress -v http://<userid>:<password>@
hostname/gitrepo.git<http://%3cuserid%3e:%3cpassword%3e@hostname/git
re
po.git>
/tmp/rns_htdocs
Cloning into '/tmp/rns_htdocs'...
fatal: Unable to find remote helper for 'http'

Anyone else seen this?
