Can't clone repo from Jenkins Windows Agent-CodePudding

My Jenkins is running on a docker container, that itself is running on a VM (we'll call it VM 1). The agent is a windows agent on a VM running on VM 1 that is trying to clone a repo from a network drive. The network drive is already mounted inside the docker container at /mnt/h/. When I launch the project, I get an error and tt seems like the git plugin concatenates the git.exe path and the repo to clone in the error message as you can see by this line:

16:49:59 stderr: fatal: 'C:/Program Files/Git/mnt/h/GIT_NEW' does not appear to be a git repository

Any ideas how I can fix this?

CodePudding user response：

Turns out jenkins didn't like the network drive. I added the windows path to the network drive and things worked.
