We have a Jenkins server (1.518) running on Ubuntu, with many plugins active, including "Jenkins GIT client plugin" 1.3.0 and "Jenkins GIT plugin" 1.5.0. What we're seeing is that in many cases on Windows agents of either Win7x64 or WinXP (not on Ubuntu), that often (but not always), a Git .pack file remains held open, causing subsequent builds to fail due to the Git .pack file remaining open. The only workarounds we have right now are to either bounce the agent java process on each windows machine that's showing the issue, or run a scheduled job which uses a handle.exe utility to find open .pack files and close them forcibly. Neither of these options are useful in the grand scheme of things.
I've tried changing the options on our windows agent .bat launch scripts to include either: java -Xmx5g -Dorg.jenkinsci.plugins.gitclient.Git.useJGit=true -jar slave.jar -jnlpurl ... java -Xmx5g -Dorg.jenkinsci.plugins.gitclient.Git.useCLI=true -jar slave.jar -jnlpurl ... but neither option has caused any difference in behavior. In reading online it looks like 1.518 already sets useCLI=true as default, so I'm doubtful that it's making any difference anyway. Are others seeing this issue? If not, any suggestions on where to look to try and resolve this issue? Thanks in advance!
