Hi Team,

I am trying to setup a local git repository and manage it from local Jenkins set-up. So, both Jenkins and git are on my local desktop.

However, I am trying to give the Repository URL but with no luck.

My repository is in D drive in location D:\Git-Try

I tried to configure this Repository URL as --- file:///d/Git-Try  also file:///D:\Git-Try , but was not successful.

Can you please let me know what should be the Repository URL.

I have created the db in above location, pushed few files and commited them as well.

Thanks and Regards, V. JayaPrakash +91 9573457665

Try D:/Git-test first.

Otherwise it might heavily depend on how Jenkins interprets those URLs and whether it even uses stock Git to access the repository (and not something else like JGit).

To first rule out an issue with Jenkins you might just try cloning that Git repo (local to local -- Git is fine with it). Once you figure out an URL which works for native Git (I assume you're talking about Git for Windows), you can try to stick it to Jenkins and see it it works.

Jenkins Git plugin uses Git-for-Windows CLI by default. You should be safe using any URL which works for git CLI locally. If not, I suggest filing a bug against the Jenkins git plugin to help ensure it gets fixed :)
