In this case, the URL should start with the file protocol followed by the path to the repository. E.g., `file:///home/rbkcbeqc/dev/git/gitsandbox`.

Access local git repository in Jenkins docker container
-------------------------------------------------------
In case somebody wants to connect to a local git repository from a Jenkins which runs in a docker container I would recommend to mount the local git repository folder to the docker image via the Volumes flag (see [Use Volumes][1] for more details).

To mount your local git repository folder to a Jenkins container run the container with an additional `-v` or `--volume` flag. 

The basic docker run statement from the official docker image documentation would then look like. 

    docker run -p 8080:8080 -p 50000:50000 
               -v &lt;PATH_TO_LOCAL_GIT_REPO&gt;:&lt;MOUNT_POINT_IN_CONTAINER&gt;:ro 
               jenkins/jenkins:latest

The `:ro` option is optional. It will mount the volume as read-only. So you won&#39;t be able to write to the repos from the container. 

Then you can simply access your git repository via the file protocol. 

    file:///&lt;MOUNT_POINT_IN_CONTAINER&gt;

No need to use ssh.  

  [1]: https://docs.docker.com/storage/volumes/


If you run Jenkins within Docker, one possible solution would be via SSH:

    ssh://user@IP_of_your_host/path_to_your_project/project_name

If you did clone a remote repository into local where `Jenkins` is running.

You can just put the path of the local repository then it will work.

For example, `/home/username/local_repository_path`. 




I am doing basic http auth with the `HttpURLConnection` object in Java.

            URL urlUse = new URL(url);
			HttpURLConnection conn = null;
			conn = (HttpURLConnection) urlUse.openConnection();
			conn.setRequestMethod(&quot;GET&quot;);
			conn.setRequestProperty(&quot;Content-length&quot;, &quot;0&quot;);
			conn.setUseCaches(false);
			conn.setAllowUserInteraction(false);
			conn.setConnectTimeout(timeout);
			conn.setReadTimeout(timeout);
			conn.connect();
			
			if(conn.getResponseCode()==201 || conn.getResponseCode()==200)
			{
				success = true;
			}


I am expecting a JSON object, or string data in the format of a valid JSON object, or HTML with simple plain text that is valid JSON. How do I access that from the `HttpURLConnection` after it returns a response?

I&#39;m confused about the scope of the lambda variable, take for instance the following

    var query = 
        from customer in clist
        from order in olist
        .Where(o =&gt; o.CustomerID == customer.CustomerID &amp;&amp; o.OrderDate ==  // line 1
            olist.Where(o1 =&gt; o1.CustomerID == customer.CustomerID)        // line 2
                 .Max(o1 =&gt; o1.OrderDate)                                  // line 3
        )
        select new {
            customer.CustomerID,
            customer.Name,
            customer.Address,
            order.Product,
            order.OrderDate
        };


In line 1 I have declare a lambda variable &#39;o&#39; which means I cannot declare it again in line 2 (or at least the compiler complains if I try to) 
But it doesn&#39;t complain about line 3 even though &#39;o1&#39; already exists??

I&#39;m new to Jenkins and git too. I created a remote repository at `github.com` and made a local copy of it.  
Then I want to link it through Jenkins. I installed needed plugins for git integration, but I don&#39;t know what my local Repository URL is to set it when configuring the new project. Could someone help me where to find it?

I cannot apply stash back to the working directory.

**Little story:**

First I tried to push some committed changes, but it said: &quot;no you can&#39;t, pull first&quot;... OK then, I&#39;ll pull things from GitHub and then push my changes. When I tried to pull, it said that I had changes that would be overwritten, and that I should stash my changes. OK, I stashed the changes... did the pull, and push the committed changes. But now, I cannot restore the uncommitted changes I was working on.

*This is the error:*

    MyPath/File.cs already exists, no checkout
    Could not restore untracked files from stash

For sure I don&#39;t yet understand all the concepts of git, they confuse me a bit... maybe I did something wrong.

It would be great if someone could help me solve this... I&#39;ve been searching google and everything for more than an hour now, and I didn&#39;t come to a solution yet.

Help is much appreciated. Thanks!

Why can&#39;t stash be applied to the working directory?

I want to push my local files, and have them on a remote repo, without having to deal with merge conflicts. I just want my local version to have priority over the remote one.

How can I do this with Git?

Force &quot;git push&quot; to overwrite remote files

Just turned an `some.sh` file into an executable (`chmod 755 ...`), the permissions were updated but not the content. Is there a way to *commit* the file into git, so that the executable bit will be restored/set on *clone* / *checkout* / *pull* ?

**Update:** how can I track that the new permissions were submitted to `github`?

Updating and committing only a file&#39;s permissions using git version control

I am trying to rename a file to have different capitalization from what it had before:

    git mv src/collision/b2AABB.js src/collision/B2AABB.js
    fatal: destination exists, source=src/collision/b2AABB.js, destination=src/collision/B2AABB.js

As you can see, Git throws a fit over this. I tried renaming using just the plain old `mv` command as well, but Git doesn&#39;t pick up the rename (as a rename *or* as a new untracked file).

How can I change a file to have a different capitalization of the same name? I am on Mac&amp;nbsp;OS&amp;nbsp;X&amp;nbsp;v10.7.3 (Lion) with Git 1.7.9.1 using [Z shell][1] (zsh) 4.3.15.

Changing capitalization of filenames in Git

Our remote master branch somehow got messed up. Current development code is on the master branch along with the latest commits. Obviously, the development code is not ready for the master branch.

So on my local repository, I did a reset to the latest tag, `git reset --hard (Tag)`. The master branch is now correct on my local repository. Now when I try to push the changes on to the remote repository, `git push origin master`, I get an error:

    To (REMOTE GIT REPOSITORY LOCATION)
     ! [rejected]        master -&gt; master (non-fast-forward)
    error: failed to push some refs to &#39;(REMOTE GIT REPOSITORY LOCATION)&#39;
    To prevent you from losing history, non-fast-forward updates were rejected
    Merge the remote changes (e.g. &#39;git pull&#39;) before pushing again.  See the
    &#39;Note about fast-forwards&#39; section of &#39;git push --help&#39; for details.

So after looking around I found out the `--force` option. So I did a force push on to the remote repository, `git push --force origin master`, and I still got an error:

    Total 0 (delta 0), reused 0 (delta 0)
    remote: error: denying non-fast-forward refs/heads/master (you should pull first)
    To (REMOTE GIT REPOSITORY LOCATION)
     ! [remote rejected] master -&gt; master (non-fast-forward)
    error: failed to push some refs to &#39;(REMOTE GIT REPOSITORY LOCATION)&#39;

I can&#39;t do a pull on master, because it contains development code which can&#39;t be on master.

I created a local repository of my Visual Studio 2010 solution folder using Git GUI on my dev machine. I then created a remote repository in my GitHub account. Now, I am looking for how to push my local repository to the remote repository.

In SVN I can just commit using TortoiseSVN and changes are pushed to the remote repository. I don&#39;t see any tool like that available for Git.

I am looking for a python library for the Github APIv3 suitable for me.

I found one library [(python-github3)][1] mentioned in the [GH API docs][2]. After playing around with it in ipython for an hour or two, I found it really unintuitive to explore/work with. I looked some more, and found there&#39;s quite a number of people at least attempting to write such a library. The more promising-looking (at a glance) are [PyGithub][3] and [another python-github3][4], which apparently is different from the first one.

*Before I spend the next days consecutively trying out library after library, I wanted to ask the SO community if there is an accepted, definitive, obvious choice for that library?*

What I didn&#39;t like about the first library was the (to me) unintuitive way to get at data - some things you get as attributes, some you get as return value of a method, that return value is some complicated object which has to be paged and iterated through, etc. 

In that regard, PyGithub looks more attractive at first glance - clearly drill down through an object hierarchy, and then arrive at the attribute containing what you want:

`for repo in g.get_user().get_repos():
    print repo.name`

So, any pearls of wisdom to share? I know I don&#39;t have skills enough to quickly judge library quality, which is why I&#39;m turning to the SO community.

*edit: fwiw, I ended up using **PyGithub**. It works well, and the author is really receptive for feedback and bug reports. :-)*

I saw a wiki page on [GitHub][1] that isn&#39;t open for editing. Then I forked the project, edited it on &quot;my end&quot; and tried to do a pull request. It turns out, the *wiki* isn&#39;t in the project, and there isn&#39;t a way to commit changes to it.

Other than e-mailing, is there a way to proceed if I want to suggest a change on the wiki in this case?

&lt;sup&gt;At this point I found out what [seems like an alternative][2] under &quot;Questions with similar titles&quot;, but I couldn&#39;t do the pull request with it yet, and so I&#39;m not sure submodules is a good way for this purpose. I now see I could probably branch it somehow... So is this the way to go?&lt;/sup&gt;

How to pull request a wiki page on GitHub?

I want to have one user page and multiple project pages hosted by [GitHub Pages](http://help.github.com/pages) but available under **ONE** custom domain (with subdomains for each GitHub Pages repository, of course). So my goals are as follows:

* One user page (&lt;http://florianwolters.github.com&gt;) available under &lt;http://blog.florianwolters.de&gt;, &lt;http://www.florianwolters.de&gt; and &lt;http://florianwolters.de&gt;.
* As many project pages as I wish (e.g. &lt;http://florianwolters.github.com/pear&gt; available under &lt;http://pear.florianwolters.de&gt;.

As of my current understanding, GitHub Pages do only allow **ONE** CNAME resource record for a page (both user pages and project pages) defined in the `CNAME` file in the root of a Git repository.
I already tried out many things (playing around with DNS records and header redirects at my domain provider [EUserv](http://euserv.com), but I can only access my GitHub user pages under one URL (&lt;http://blog.florianwolters.de&gt;). I am aware that DNS changes can take up until two days.

Can somebody explain to me, how I can achieve the goals described above? I can not believe that this is not possible but I am also no expert for DNS, etc.

If the above is not possible: What is your suggested workaround? I do want to access all my GitHub pages under one domain (and the subdomains of that domain).

I have a project hosted on GitHub. For this I have written my README using the Markdown syntax in order to have it nicely formatted on GitHub.

As my project is in Python I also plan to upload it to [PyPi][1]. The syntax used for READMEs on PyPi is reStructuredText. 

I would like to avoid having to handle two READMEs containing roughly the same content; so I searched for a markdown to RST (or the other way around) translator, but couldn&#39;t find any. 

The other solution I see is to perform a markdown/HTML and then a HTML/RST translation. I found some ressources for this [here][2] and [here][3] so I guess it should be possible.

Would you have any idea that could fit better with what I want to do?

I would like to be able to do something like:

    AOEU=$(echo aoeu)

and have Jenkins set `AOEU=aoeu`.

The *Environment Variables* section in Jenkins doesn&#39;t do that. Instead, it sets `AOEU=&#39;$(echo aoeu)&#39;`.

How can I get Jenkins to evaluate a shell command and assign the output to an environment variable?

Eventually, I want to be able to assign the executor of a job to an environment variable that can be passed into or used by other scripts.

How to set environment variables in Jenkins?

I have a script that delete and re-create jobs through curl HTTP-calls and I want to get rid of any hard-coded &quot;username:password&quot;.
E.g. `curl -X POST $url --user username:password`

Considerations:

 - **Jenkins CLI** (probably not an option). 
One should be able to achieve the same with the CLI as with Jenkins API (creating jobs etc) but as far as I understand Jenkins CLI is not a good alternative for me since jobs created with will only appear in Jenkins after restarting or a &quot;Reload Configuration from Disk&quot;, and that would cancel any other running jobs.

 - **API token**. Can&#39;t find out how to get the user token and then pass it
   as a parameter to the script, but that may be a solution..

How can a Jenkins user authentication details be &quot;passed&quot; to a script which uses Jenkins API to create jobs?
