Azure devops - git repo synchronization

Question

I created a pipeline in azure devops, added three tasks in order listed below:
1) Command line task
2) Powershell task
3) Command line task

task 1)

git config --global user.email "[email protected]"
git config --global user.name "xxxx"
cd $(Build.SourcesDirectory)
git init

task 2) Powershell task

task 3)

git add filename.csv
git commit -m "csv file update"
git remote rm origin
git remote add origin  https://[email protected]/OrgName/ProjectName/_git/RepoName
git push -u origin HEAD:master

I used this solution in a different subscription and there was no problem. I moved solution to second subscription and I am still facing issue: fatal: could not read Password for https://[email protected]/OrgName/ProjectName/_git/RepoName: terminal prompts disabled[error]Cmd.exe exited with code 128

I have configured the repo using this MS documentation Something is wrong with task 3). tasks 1) and task 2) completed successfully.

I moved solution to second subscription are you saying you put these pipeline tasks in a pipeline under a different organization? — Josh Gust

Hi, Yes, put these pipeline tasks in a pipeline under a different organization, in previous organization there was no problem, after migration I am facing mentioned issues. — tester81

In the next organization, did you want it push the file to another organization? Does the org you want this git push to same with the current pipeline located? — Mengdi Liang

Hi @Merlin Liang, I want to push file into repo located in the same organization. the same pipeline. — tester81

@tester81, That's odd to prompt this error message. Does below format could help for solve the error? Since the error said could not read password, I think attack the token in the command may meet the password requirement. — Mengdi Liang

Please try with below push script, which attached the PAT token in the git command to authorized the operation:

git push https://{PAT}@dev.azure.com/{org name}/{project name}/_git/{repos name} master

Use this command and replace the original git remote add origin and git push.

UPDATE:

To make you more clear about how to apply it into the task, I reproduced it on my side.

Note: No changes are required to the original first Command line task and Powershell task, the below changes are only in the second Command line task:

git checkout $(Build.SourceBranchName)
git add .
git commit -m "aaaa"
git push https://{token}@dev.azure.com/{org name}/{project name}/_git/{repos} master

When we apply the token in the git command, the whole script need to be changed. Please replace above script all in the second Command line task.

I updated the git code:

git add filename.csv git commit -m "csv file update" git remote rm origin git remote add origin  https://[email protected]/OrgName/ProjectName/_git/RepoName git push -u origin HEAD:master

and I got error like: The following project does not exist: ProjectName. Verify that the name of the project is correct and that the project exists on the specified Azure DevOps Server. fatal: repository '[email protected]/OrgName/ProjectName/_git/RepoName' not found, I used this link and was able to open my repository.

As I mentioned, and I got error like: The following project does not exist: ProjectName. Verify that the name of the project is correct and that the project exists on the specified Azure DevOps Server. fatal: repository '[email protected]/OrgName/ProjectName/_git/RepoName' not found, I used this link and was able to open my repository.

@tester81. I wrote a completed script to execute the git push command with token. Please have a try then let me know is it work for you.(It succeed on my side)

Still facing an error, message

remote: TFxxxx: The following project does not exist: ProjectName. Verify that the name of the project is correct and that the project exists on the specified Azure DevOps Server.

I think something is wrong with the project name, My project name contains two words and a space between them, like "Word1 Word2", and in this line git push https://{token}@dev.azure.com/{org name}/{project name}/_git/{repos} master I am using projectname like "Word1%20Word2", and I can open the link in my browser, but GIT cant handle this I suppose.
