How to clone in noninteractive mode mercurial repository with subrepositories? #3786

feature support request question

dmelnicz · 7 years ago

Hi,
I'm cloning hg repo and I have to give password and user for each subrepository. It works nice by hand, but it seems that QB doesn't support that option. I'm missing something?
Is there any workaround how to do that in QB?

Can you run clone command by adding username and password in the url like below:

hg clone http://username:password@your-hg/repo/nested

Or do you use some other method to checkout the subrepo?

I'm using built in step "Repository > Checkout" and it gives me:

Failed to run command: hg -y clone https://user:******@hg-repo.com/index.py/project /path/to/project
Command return code: 255
Command error output: abort: http authorization required for https://hg-repo.com/index.py/project-SecuritySubRepo (in subrepo src/security)

It seems that hg will prompt for password after visiting main repo. To avoid this, you may consider using a global authentication.

Please refer to below post in stackoverflow:

If you are using the global authentication, you needn't input username and password in QuickBuild anymore.
