It seems that I have stumbled upon a known bug: the Git Parameters plugin does not work for private repositories because it ignores the SSH credentials in the Jenkins setup: https://issues.jenkins-ci.org/browse/JENKINS-23396
I made a workaround with the Extensible Choice Parameter plugin <https://wiki.jenkins-ci.org/display/JENKINS/Extensible+Choice+Parameter+plugin> : http://stackoverflow.com/a/28565446/766786 It's a kludge, but it works for me. PS: I want to subscribe to bug JENKINS-23396, but I can't register due to spam. Halp?
