Python Cartridge Agent - Authenticated Git Artifact Synchronization -
Script based approach
Hi,
I'm in the process of adapting Dulwich Python library to replace the
current libraries that are used in the Python cartridge agent, as discussed
in the mail thread titled "Pure Python library for Git".
However, the authenticated git repository cloning, which has been one of
the major issues since the beginning of the Python implementation, doesn't
seem to be working properly with Dulwich. I've opened an issue in the
Dulwich GitHub repository, but so far I didn't get a successful response.
Another approach to tackle this is to use platform dependent scripts along
with the Git binary to manage the repository related operations. For
example, in Linux, a Bash script can use the Git binary to execute the git
operations. The cartridge agent would only invoke the script based on the
OS type.
Of course, this is an initial thought and needs to be further investigated.
Please feel free to add your thoughts.

+1 Imesh. Agent's git related code already contains git binary dependent
code. So this would be the quicker path to take.

Hi Devs,
May be we can switch to OS based binary Git client if we cannot find a
proper native Python Git library for this as this is a blocker. In a later
release we can switch it back once we get a proper fix. WDYT?
Thanks
