I'm searching for the way to get $ go get work with private repository, after many google try.
The first try:
$ go get -v gitlab.com/secmask/awserver-go
Fetching https://gitlab.com/secmask/awserver-go?go-get=1
https fetch failed.
Fetching http://gitlab.com/secmask/awserver-go?go-get=1
Parsing meta tags from http://gitlab.com/secmask/awserver-go?go-get=1 (status code 200)
import "gitlab.com/secmask/awserver-go": parse http://gitlab.com/secmask/awserver-go?go-get=1: no go-import meta tags
package gitlab.com/secmask/awserver-go: unrecognized import path "gitlab.com/secmask/awserver-go
Yep, it did not see the meta tags because I could not know how to provide login information.
The second try:
Follow https://gist.github.com/shurcooL/6927554. Add config to .gitconfig.
[url "ssh://git#gitlab.com/"]
insteadOf = https://gitlab.com/
$ go get -v gitlab.com/secmask/awserver-go --> not work
$ go get -v gitlab.com/secmask/awserver-go.git --> work but I got src/gitlab.com/secmask/awserer-go.git
Yes it work but with .git extension with my project name, I can rename it to original but do it everytime $ go get is not so good, is there an otherway?
You have one thing to configure. The example is based on GitHub but this shouldn't change the process:
$ git config --global url.git#github.com:.insteadOf https://github.com/
$ cat ~/.gitconfig
[url "git#github.com:"]
insteadOf = https://github.com/
$ go get github.com/private/repo
For Go modules to work (with Go 1.11 or newer), you'll also need to set the GOPRIVATE variable, to avoid using the public servers to fetch the code:
export GOPRIVATE=github.com/private/repo
The proper way is to manually put the repository in the right place. Once the repository is there, you can use go get -u to update the package and go install to install it. A package named
github.com/secmask/awserver-go
goes into
$GOPATH/src/github.com/secmask/awserver-go
The commands you type are:
cd $GOPATH/src/github.com/secmask
git clone git#github.com:secmask/awserver-go.git
I had a problem with go get using private repository on gitlab from our company.
I lost a few minutes trying to find a solution. And I did find this one:
You need to get a private token at:
https://gitlab.mycompany.com/profile/account
Configure you git to add extra header with your private token:
$ git config --global http.extraheader "PRIVATE-TOKEN: YOUR_PRIVATE_TOKEN"
Configure your git to convert requests from http to ssh:
$ git config --global url."git#gitlab.mycompany.com:".insteadOf "https://gitlab.mycompany.com/"
Finally you can use your go get normally:
$ go get gitlab.com/company/private_repo
For people using private GitLabs, here's a snippet that may help: https://gist.github.com/MicahParks/1ba2b19c39d1e5fccc3e892837b10e21
Also pasted below:
Problem
The go command line tool needs to be able to fetch dependencies from your private GitLab, but authenticaiton is required.
This assumes your private GitLab is hosted at privategitlab.company.com.
Environment variables
The following environment variables are recommended:
export GO111MODULE=on
export GOPRIVATE=privategitlab.company.com # this is comma delimited if using multiple private repos
The above lines might fit best in your shell startup, like a ~/.bashrc.
Explanation
GO111MODULE=on tells Golang command line tools you are using modules. I have not tested this with projects not using
Golang modules on a private GitLab.
GOPRIVATE=privategitlab.company.com tells Golang command line tools to not use public internet resources for the hostnames
listed (like the public module proxy).
Get a personal access token from your private GitLab
To future proof these instructions, please follow this guide from the GitLab docs.
I know that the read_api scope is required for Golang command line tools to work, and I may suspect read_repository as
well, but have not confirmed this.
Set up the ~/.netrc
In order for the Golang command line tools to authenticate to GitLab, a ~/.netrc file is best to use.
To create the file if it does not exist, run the following commands:
touch ~/.netrc
chmod 600 ~/.netrc
Now edit the contents of the file to match the following:
machine privategitlab.company.com login USERNAME_HERE password TOKEN_HERE
Where USERNAME_HERE is replaced with your GitLab username and TOKEN_HERE is replaced with the access token aquired in the
previous section.
Common mistakes
Do not set up a global git configuration with something along the lines of this:
git config --global url."git#privategitlab.company.com:".insteadOf "https://privategitlab.company.com"
I beleive at the time of writing this, the SSH git is not fully supported by Golang command line tools and this may cause
conflicts with the ~/.netrc.
Bonus: SSH config file
For regular use of the git tool, not the Golang command line tools, it's convient to have a ~/.ssh/config file set up.
In order to do this, run the following commands:
mkdir ~/.ssh
chmod 700 ~/.ssh
touch ~/.ssh/config
chmod 600 ~/.ssh/config
Please note the permissions on the files and directory above are essentail for SSH to work in it's default configuration on
most Linux systems.
Then, edit the ~/.ssh/config file to match the following:
Host privategitlab.company.com
Hostname privategitlab.company.com
User USERNAME_HERE
IdentityFile ~/.ssh/id_rsa
Please note the spacing in the above file matters and will invalidate the file if it is incorrect.
Where USERNAME_HERE is your GitLab username and ~/.ssh/id_rsa is the path to your SSH private key in your file system.
You've already uploaded its public key to GitLab. Here are some instructions.
All of the above did not work for me. Cloning the repo was working correctly but I was still getting an unrecognized import error.
As it stands for Go v1.13, I found in the doc that we should use the GOPRIVATE env variable like so:
$ GOPRIVATE=github.com/ORGANISATION_OR_USER_NAME go get -u github.com/ORGANISATION_OR_USER_NAME/REPO_NAME
Generate a github oauth token here and export your github token as an environment variable:
export GITHUB_TOKEN=123
Set git config to use the basic auth url:
git config --global url."https://$GITHUB_TOKEN:x-oauth-basic#github.com/".insteadOf "https://github.com/"
Now you can go get your private repo.
If you've already got git using SSH, this answer by Ammar Bandukwala is a simple workaround:
$ go get uses git internally. The following one liners will make git and consequently $ go get clone your package via SSH.
Github:
$ git config --global url."git#github.com:".insteadOf "https://github.com/"
BitBucket:
$ git config --global url."git#bitbucket.org:".insteadOf "https://bitbucket.org/"
I came across .netrc and found it relevant to this.
Create a file ~/.netrc with the following content:
machine github.com
login <github username>
password <github password or Personal access tokens >
Done!
Additionally, for latest GO versions, you might need to add this to the environment variables GOPRIVATE=github.com
(I've added it to my .zshrc)
netrc also makes my development environment setup better as my personal github access for HTTPS is been configured now to be used across the machine (just like my SSH configuration).
Generate GitHub personal access tokens: https://github.com/settings/tokens
See this answer for its use with Git on Windows specifically
Ref: netrc man page
If you want to stick with the SSH authentication, then mask the request to use ssh forcefully
git config --global url."git#github.com:".insteadOf "https://github.com/"
More methods for setting up git access: https://gist.github.com/technoweenie/1072829#gistcomment-2979908
That looks like the GitLab issue 5769.
In GitLab, since the repositories always end in .git, I must specify .git at the end of the repository name to make it work, for example:
import "example.org/myuser/mygorepo.git"
And:
$ go get example.org/myuser/mygorepo.git
Looks like GitHub solves this by appending ".git".
It is supposed to be resolved in “Added support for Go's repository retrieval. #5958”, provided the right meta tags are in place.
Although there is still an issue for Go itself: “cmd/go: go get cannot discover meta tag in HTML5 documents”.
After trying multiple solutions my problem still persisted. The final solution after setting up the ~/.netrc and SSH config file, was to add the following line to my ~/.bash_profile
export GOPRIVATE="github.com/[organization]"
I have created a user specific ssh-config, so my user automatically logs in with the correct credentials and key.
First I needed to generate an key-pair
ssh-keygen -t rsa -b 4096 -C "my#email.here"
and saved it to e.g ~/.ssh/id_my_domain. Note that this is also the keypair (private and public) I've connected to my Github account, so mine is stored in~/.ssh/id_github_com.
I have then created (or altered) a file called ~/.ssh/config with an entry:
Host github.com
HostName github.com
User git
IdentityFile ~/.ssh/id_github_com
On another server, the "ssh-url" is admin#domain.com:username/private-repo.git and the entry for this server would have been:
Host domain.com
HostName domain.com
User admin
IdentityFile ~/.ssh/id_domain_com
Just to clarify that you need ensure that the User, Host and HostName is set correctly.
Now I can just browse into the go path and then go get <package>, e.g go get main where the file main/main.go includes the package (from last example above) domain.com:username/private-repo.git.
For me, the solutions offered by others still gave the following error during go get
git#gl.nimi24.com: Permission denied (publickey).
fatal: Could not read from remote repository.
Please make sure you have the correct access rights
and the repository exists.
What this solution required
As stated by others:
git config --global url."git#github.com:".insteadOf "https://github.com/"
Removing the passphrase from my ./ssh/id_rsa key which was used for authenticating the connection to the repository. This can be done by entering an empty password when prompted as a response to:
ssh-keygen -p
Why this works
This is not a pretty workaround as it is always better to have a passphrase on your private key, but it was causing issues somewhere inside OpenSSH.
go get uses internally git, which uses openssh to open the connection. OpenSSH takes the certs necessary for authentication from .ssh/id_rsa. When executing git commands from the command line an agent can take care of opening the id_rsa file for you so that you do not have to specify the passphrase every time, but when executed in the belly of go get, this did not work somewhy in my case. OpenSSH wants to prompt you then for a password but since it is not possible due to how it was called, it prints to its debug log:
read_passphrase: can't open /dev/tty: No such device or address
And just fails. If you remove the passphrase from the key file, OpenSSH will get to your key without that prompt and it works
This might be caused by Go fetching modules concurrently and opening multiple SSH connections to Github at the same time (as described in this article). This is somewhat supported by the fact that OpenSSH debug log showed the initial connection to the repository succeed, but later tried it again for some reason and this time opted to ask for a passphrase.
However the solution of using SSH connection multiplexing as put forward in the mentioned article did not work for me. For the record, the author suggested adding the collowing conf to the ssh config file for the affected host:
ControlMaster auto
ControlPersist 3600
ControlPath ~/.ssh/%r#%h:%p
But as stated, for me it did not work, maybe I did it wrong
After setting up GOPRIVATE and git config ...
People may still meeting problems like this when fetching private source:
https fetch: Get "https://private/user/repo?go-get=1": EOF
They can't use private repo without .git extension.
The reason is the go tool has no idea about the VCS protocol of this repo, git or svn or any other, unlike github.com or golang.org them are hardcoded into go's source.
Then the go tool will do a https query before fetching your private repo:
https://private/user/repo?go-get=1
If your private repo has no support for https request, please use replace to tell it directly :
require private/user/repo v1.0.0
...
replace private/user/repo => private.server/user/repo.git v1.0.0
https://golang.org/cmd/go/#hdr-Remote_import_paths
first I tried
[url "ssh://git#github.com/"]
insteadOf = https://github.com/
but it didn't worked for my local.
I tried
ssh -t git#github.com
and it shows my ssh is fine.
finally, I fix the problem to tell the go get to consider all as private and use ssh instead of HTTPS.
adding export GOPRIVATE=*
Make sure you remove your previous gitconfigs, I had the same issue.
Previously I executed gitconfig whose token was expired, when you execute the command next time with new token make sure to delete previous one.
For standalone/final repos, an as a quick fix, why don't just to name the module within the go.mod as a package using your company's domain ... ?
module go.yourcompany.tld/the_repo
go.yourcompany.tld don't even have to exist as a valid (sub)domain...
Also, in the same go.mod you can use replacement block/lines to use private repos previously cloned the same way (within a respective folder cloned also in $GOPATH/src/go.yourcompany.tld) (why do we have to depend too much in GitHub?)
Edit
Needless to say that a private repo usually shall be a private repo, typically a standard git repo, right? With that, why not just to git clone and then go get within the cloned folder?
It's Hard Code In Go Get. Not The Git Reason. So Modify Go Source.
Reason:
repoRootForImportDynamic Will Request: https://....go-get
// RepoRootForImportPath analyzes importPath to determine the
// version control system, and code repository to use.
func RepoRootForImportPath(importPath string, mod ModuleMode, security web.SecurityMode) (*RepoRoot, error) {
rr, err := repoRootFromVCSPaths(importPath, security, vcsPaths)
if err == errUnknownSite {
rr, err = repoRootForImportDynamic(importPath, mod, security)
if err != nil {
err = importErrorf(importPath, "unrecognized import path %q: %v", importPath, err)
}
}
if err != nil {
rr1, err1 := repoRootFromVCSPaths(importPath, security, vcsPathsAfterDynamic)
if err1 == nil {
rr = rr1
err = nil
}
}
So add gitlab domain to vcsPaths will ok.
Download go source code:
vi ./src/cmd/go/internal/vcs/vcs.go
Look for code below:
var vcsPaths = []*vcsPath{
// GitHub
{
pathPrefix: "github.com",
regexp: lazyregexp.New(`^(?P<root>github\.com/[A-Za-z0-9_.\-]+/[A-Za-z0-9_.\-]+)(/[A-Za-z0-9_.\-]+)*$`),
vcs: "git",
repo: "https://{root}",
check: noVCSSuffix,
},
add Code As Follow,XXXX Is Your Domain:
// GitLab
{
pathPrefix: "gitlab.xxxx.com",
regexp: lazyregexp.New(`^(?P<root>gitlab.xxxx\.com/[A-Za-z0-9_.\-]+/[A-Za-z0-9_.\-]+)(/[A-Za-z0-9_.\-]+)*$`),
vcs: "git",
repo: "https://{root}",
check: noVCSSuffix,
},
compile and replace go.
when I am trying to clone a rails app repo I have got permission to, I am getting this issue.
Permission denied (publickey).
fatal: Could not read from remote repository.
Please make sure you have the correct access rights
and the repository exists.
Even after adding public key by generating one, I am unable to solve this.
Although I am able to clone using he https method but after making changes, the same error comes while I try to push the code.
Please suggest an answer for this.
First, cd into your .ssh directory. Open up the terminal and run:
cd ~/.ssh && ssh-keygen
Second, you need to copy this to your clipboard:
cat id_rsa.pub | pbcopy # On OSX
cat id_rsa.pub | xclip # On Linux
Third, add your newly generated ssh key to your account via the github/bitbucket website (just paste there).
Next, setup your git config:
git config --global user.name 'your_user_name'
git config --global user.email 'your_email'
Finally, restart your command line to make sure the config is reloaded.
Now, you should be able to clone and push from/to your github repository.
For more information on this, see this github page or this bitbucket page.
When attempting to clone, push, or pull over SSH with Git, you may receive one of these messages if Bitbucket couldn't authenticate with the keys that your SSH agent offered.
Here are the most common reasons why you may see these messages:
You used sudo when attempting the connection
You shouldn't use sudo when cloning, pushing, or pulling because the ssh-agent runs on the user level, not the root level.
Your public key isn't loaded into Bitbucket
To check if your public key is loaded into Bitbucket, do the following:
From Bitbucket, choose Personal settings from your avatar in the lower left.
The Account settings page displays.
Click SSH keys.
The SSH keys page shows a list of any existing keys.
If you don't have any keys listed, you can follow our Set up an SSH key documentation to set one up.
Your key isn't loaded into your SSH agent
If your SSH agent doesn't know to offer Bitbucket a key, the connection fails. You may run into this issue if you've recently restarted your system.
You can refer to this Article for more informations:
https://support.atlassian.com/bitbucket-cloud/docs/troubleshoot-ssh-issues/
Check few things.
Is the generated new key is the one your ssh agent using when trying to ssh to server.
(Your ssh agent might be using a different key than the one you generated)
use this to list currently loaded keys by agent.
ssh-add -L
You properly added public key to your repository hosting location.
The keys corresponding to above 1 and 2 should match.
Please see this article: GitHub: Generating SSH Keys. What happens when you run:
ssh -T git#bitbucket.org
?
You may have added the wrong key to authenticate with.
I faced this error when I created another repository in my local. My ssh-keys were already set up and I was trying to push code through vs code.
The issue got resolved when I git push-ed through git bash like I was doing before.
For bit bucket I think I have tried everything with ssh. I have tried the answer from this stackoverflow question as well. But it doesn't work. So finally I just changed the clone command from SSH to HTTPS and it worked. Only then it asked for password for my account.
Whenever I try to commit, using source control in Xcode, I get an error that I need to configure my email address and name (it seems to read my email address incorrectly). I went to the Terminal, and entered them (again). The error didn't go away.
I can commit normally in Terminal, but not in Xcode. Is there a way to fix it? Or enter the configuration info directly in Xcode?
This is the error message:
*** Please tell me who you are.
Run
git config --global user.email "you#example.com"
git config --global user.name "Your Name"
to set your account's default identity.
Omit --global to set the identity only in this repository.
fatal: unable to auto-detect email address (got
'myemail#gmail-1040826.(none)')
Here's my .gitconfig (I replaced my actual name with "My Name", and my username with "myname" for privacy reasons):
myname-1040826:Project myname$ git config -l
user.email=myname#gmail.com
user.name=My Name
filter.media.clean=git-media-clean %f
filter.media.smudge=git-media-smudge %f

core.filemode=true
core.bare=false
core.logallrefupdates=true
core.ignorecase=true
core.precomposeunicode=true
submodule.PeerKit.url=https://github.com/jpsim/PeerKit.git
It looks like Xcode is not reading global GIT settings. If you encounter this issue, set your name and email to the specific project via the Terminal:
git config user.email "you#example.com"
git config user.name "Your Name"
Note: Make sure you are in the project's directory when you do the above.
It's not only the matter in global settings, the real problem are local ones.
Try this.
cd your/project/directory
git config --local user.email "your#email.com"
git config --local user.name "yourName"
This worked for me.
I could commit to this repository without problem with Xcode 6. git still works fine in terminal, i can commit both locally and to the remote. In Xcode 7, I can commit locally but not remotely. it says authentication fails and it is impossible to reset the username. (it's greyed out). I have the proper username in my local git config file. I've also tried to create a new account but I end up with the same problem of not being able to enter the userName.
my git config --local --list
core.repositoryformatversion=0
core.filemode=true

The problem is that you are using the SSH remote URL:
remote.origin.url=git#bitbucket.org:myUserName/myProject.git
You will need to switch to the HTTPS remote URL.
git remote set-url origin https://bitbucket.org/myUserName/myProject.git
Alternatively, just give up. Stop trying to use Xcode's internal git management. (It's pretty terrible, so no harm done.) If you want a GUI, use SourceTree; it's from the same people who give you Bitbucket and works with it beautifully.
Problem 1.
when I run the command
$ git config --global user.name
# or
$ git config --global user.email
I get the following error message:
error: More than one value for the key user.name/email
So it seems like I have multiple values stored against both my user name and email. I want to have one value stored in each.
Problem 2.
The name shown against my commits on github is not linked to my account. means not hyper linked its blocked.
I searched a lot but got no satisfactory result to my problems. anyone can please help.
Solution to Problem 1:
First look to see what is listed in the config:
git config --list
Example output:
enter code here
user.email=abarker#cern.ch
user.name=fiveisgreen
user.github=fiveisgreen
user.name=Anthony
In this example, user.name is listed twice. To remove the duplicate do:
git config --global --unset user.name Anthony
Have a look in ~/.gitconfig
I'm guessing yours should look something like this:
...
[user]
name = Sami
email = xxx#xx.com
name = Sami
email = xxx#xxx.com
....
Just remove the dupliucate entries to get rid of the message.
In terms of linking to github, check out this answer
git config -l #shows you what name, email and other stuff is saved
cat ~/.gitconfig #shows you samething(what's saved in your /home/username/.gitconfig)
To change stuff on existing commits in your machine you can try this on the commandline:
$ git config user.name "Your Name"
$ git config user.email "your#address.com"
$ git submodule foreach --recursive 'git config user.name "Your Name" && git config user.email "your#address.com"'
.... see rest here : https://gist.github.com/carlosmcevilly/2221249
ps:if you have already commited stuff and want snyc with github, then ask another question(that is separate issue)
Are you using Windows or a Unix based system? If you are on a Unix based system you can check the config inside the config file. Go to your home folder and in there, there should be a hidden file called .gitconfig open it and see what info you have there. Maybe there is an error on the file.
