Failed to git clone if url contains git+ssh as prefix

[Aristo Chen]

Hello,

This is Aristo from OEM Enablement team in Taiwan, I am trying to use snapcraft(version 7.2.8) to build a gadget snap, the following is part of the snapcraft.yaml

"""
u-boot:
    plugin: nil
    source: git+ssh://git.launchpad.net/~<MY_TEAM>/<MY_PROJECT>/+git/u-boot
    source-type: git
    source-depth: 1
    source-branch: classic
"""
When I execute sudo snapcraft --destructive-mode, it will have this error

"""
Failed to pull source: command ['git', 'clone', '--recursive', '--branch', 'classic', '--depth', '1', 'file:///home/vagrant/aristo/baytown/classic22/gadget-snap/git+ssh:/git.launchpad.net/~<MY_TEAM>/<MY_PROJECT>/+git/u-boot', PosixPath('/home/vagrant/aristo/baytown/classic22/gadget-snap/parts/u-boot/src')] exited with code 128.
"""

I am able to build the same gadget snap with 6.x/stable without issue

Thanks!

Hi @aristochen,

Thanks for the report. This is a regression introduced in snapcraft 7.

A fix has been committed and is scheduled to be release within the next week.

In the meantime, the workaround is to choose a single protocol (http, git, or ssh) instead of git+ssh

fix: https://github.com/canonical/craft-parts/pull/321

This has been fixed and released as part of snapcraft 7.2.9.
