I am attempting to push a commit to a branch within a Jenkins pipeline and then I want to open a PR for this new branch into main.
I have encountered the following error:
+ git commit -m '[Jenkins] Updating build-tools to version 21-alpine3.20'
Author identity unknown
*** Please tell me who you are.
Run
git config --global user.email "you@example.com"
git config --global user.name "Your Name"
to set your account's default identity.
Omit --global to set the identity only in this repository.
fatal: unable to auto-detect email address (got 'jenkins@docker-build-ifg8d-jwmq2-bkgb4.(none)')
I am using the Kubernetes plugin to dynamically create a new pod for each pipeline job and the git plugin for git features (the docker-build-{random-characters} is a randomly generated string to give each pod a unique name).
I have a user.name and user.email set within the “Git plugin” section within “Manage Jenkins”, but it doesn’t look like these values are pulled through successfully, when I attempt to print(env.GIT_COMMITER_NAME) or some other envVar included with the Git plugin, I just get null.
I tried doing a git config --global user.name Jenkins when SSHing into my Jenkins controller and cat ~/.gitconfig to check this was added and it was, I still got the same error in the pipeline.
The only thing I have found that works is executing the git config --global user.name Jenkins within the pipeline script.
This is ok because it actually works (yay), but it just seems wrong to need to do this. I thought the Git plugin would take care of this, thats why there are text inputs in “Manage Jenkins” > “Git plugin”.
I am thinking about creating a shared function so that anyone in my team can just add gitUtils.setGitConfig() into their pipeline that contains the 2 shell commands to set user.name and user.email but again, I don’t think this should be needed.
Am I missing something? I think maybe the Git plugin is broken (because the envVars come out as null), or it doesnt work well with the Kubernetes plugin, due to the error message obtained: (maybe the git plugin doesn’t work across dynamically created k8s pods?)
