Dear Git list,
I have tried to used git credentials within Gitlab-CI runners. I have 4
instance of GitLab and discovered a weird bug with Git credentials when
use within a CI process.
Please note before all that the time spend allowed me multiple time to
check that my credentials are valid for the repository. And calling git
fetch --tags with the full remote url that include the credentials
always succeeded.
Tested with Git 2.11, 2.19
Git credentials in ~/.git-credentials and ~/.config/git/credentials are
being removed by git upon reading.
This happen randomly accross my CI runner, and change that make them
work on not related.
