I sent a question last week about my issues with the Git plugin, whereby the gitExe was empty by the time the plugin ran the 'clone' command. I didn't get any useful response to that and, honestly, I'm not surprised -- it's clearly an esoteric and site-specific problem. I do need to fixed, though, so I need some advice.
Specifically, what are some steps I can take to debug this problem, as an end-user? As in, is there a way to increase logging for just the plugin? Or maybe add logging for the part of the code that talks with the plugin? Inspect it via JMX? If you encountered this problem on your own Jenkins setup, what steps would you take to track down the problem?
