Redmine

Git wrapped out by it for covering --no-color issue

#!/usr/local/bin/bash

# The latest git version (2.14.1) removes the --no-color option which breaks existing redmine/git
# support.  We remove this option from the provided arguments until redmine fixes this,
# presumably in redmine 3.4.3
# Issue #305

REAL_GIT="/usr/local/bin/git" 
$REAL_GIT "${@%--no-color}" 

Git version

$ /usr/local/sbin/git --version --no-color
git version 2.18.0

My env

The output of command that I found

$ /projects/www/redmine/bin/rails runner "Repository.fetch_changesets" -e production
fatal: '' is not a valid branch name.

The log file line

git log error: git exited with non-zero status: 128

I've been trying to fix it like over here https://www.redmine.org/issues/12505 - nothing has happened

Just tried to make version downgrade. The same issue for every version to 3.4.2 stable

$ /projects/www/redmine/bin/rails runner "Repository.fetch_changesets" -e production
fatal: '' is not a valid branch name.

Environment:
  Redmine version                3.4.2.stable
  Ruby version                   2.4.4-p296 (2018-03-28) [amd64-freebsd11]
  Rails version                  4.2.8
  Environment                    production
  Database adapter               Mysql2
SCM:
  Git                            2.18.0
  Filesystem                     
Redmine plugins:
  no plugin installed

Does anyone reading it?

Thanks for reply. I do appreciate it.

My environment:

FreeBSD 11.2
Git 2.18 (Mentioned in my post, I suppose you are not tried it on the same environment because you are mentioning Git 2.14 - suppose Linux)
Git covered by Gitolite for access via SSH
Ruby (been testing huge variation from 2.2 to lates 2.4 within huge list of variations of gems and Rails)
MySQL (version from 5.5 to 8.0)
Apache 24
Redmine version from 3.2 to lates from tar.gz archives and Github repo with using stable branches.

Redmine manifest for versions has conflict from begin:
MySQL working good from 5.0 to 5.3 - the lower available version for FreeBSD OS is 5.5
And other small issues.

In my post I've been mentioning about solution for wrapping Git there are BASH script that is cutting out this parameter, found in Stackoverflow.

For now no any interest in it since yestreday. I am so sorry, but migrated to Jira, yesterday installed. 4 weeks of seeking and researching for solution - very expensive for me. More then 100USD for small company Jira license for 2 years. I am so sorry after 5 years of using Redmine stopped.

Best regards.

Sorry for hearing this, if you want to investigate more I need a demo repository for which you receive the error. Maybe is other problem.

Can you provide a test repository that can be used to reproduce the problem?

Absolutely. Though since I observe the problem only in one repository, I am not sure if creating a test repository will reproduce the issue. I can give you an access to the real one. I just wonder how we can exchange access or contact information. Everything is public here.

I have an idea. I temporarily turned on self registration on my Redmine. Can you go to ooooooooo and register? Then I will see your email and we will be able to talk about access to the problem repository. Will it do?

Hi. Does somebody have any solution about this issue? I have the same problem but next set configuration:

Environment:
Redmine version 4.1.1.stable
Ruby version 2.5.8-p224 (2020-03-31) [x64-mingw32]
Rails version 5.2.4.2
Environment production
Database adapter Mysql2
Mailer queue ActiveJob::QueueAdapters::AsyncAdapter
Mailer delivery smtp
SCM:
Git 2.27.0
Filesystem
Redmine plugins:
no plugin installed

Usually the other projects show "git repository" completly but only one project repository does not show the completed "git log" and "commits" changes.

Any suggestions ?

If you still have this issue you could take a look at
How to reinit "Latest revisions" (changesets) for repository and maybe #12505
