gerrit-cherry-pick fatal origin does not appear to be a git repository

0 votes

I’m trying to do a gerrit-cherry-pick.

I did a git remote -v and can see the origin is pointing to ssh://waccount@tech-gerrit.sd.company.com:29418/tech-ci.git and I’m getting the following error:

2018-08-09 21:13:15 change-merged   runCmd               169    INFO    : Running command git --git-dir=/gerrit_v2/hooks/tech_projects/tech-ci/.git --work-tree=/gerrit_v2/hooks/tech_projects/tech-ci remote -v

The user account making that command does not have its ~/.ssh/id_rsa.pubdefault public SSH key registered in ~waccount/.ssh/authorized_keys on the tech-gerrit.sd.company.com server.

try executing the following command In the same command sequence

ssh -Tv -p 2941 waccount@tech-gerrit.sd.company.com 

That will display more details on the failed connection attempt.

If not possible, try and make sure the environment variable GIT_SSH_COMMAND is set with 'ssh -v'.
