Hi,

Just wondering if anyone can shed some light into an error I'm seeing. This 
is on GoCD version 16.7.0, build 3819.

The below errors happen when I try to trigger a pipeline (to build a rails 
app). The pipeline doesn't start at all.

Modification check failed for material: URL: ssh://git@code.<hidden by 
Hans>.git, Branch: master [Sep-24 02:41:19]
Error performing command: --- Command --- git rev-parse --abbrev-ref HEAD 
--- Environment --- {GIT_ALLOW_PROTOCOL=http:https:ssh:git:file:rsync} --- 
INPUT ---- --OUTPUT --- HEAD --- ERROR --- STDERR: fatal: ambiguous 
argument 'HEAD': unknown revision or path not in the working tree. STDERR: 
Use '--' to separate paths from revisions, like this: STDERR: 'git 
<command> [<revision>...] -- [<file>...]' --- 
Could not trigger pipeline 'Poseidon' [Sep-24 02:41:19]
Material update failed for material 'ssh://git@code.<hidden by Hans>.git' 
because: Error performing command: --- Command --- git rev-parse

--- HEAD --- ERROR --- STDERR: fatal: ambiguous argument 'HEAD': unknown 
revision or path not in the working tree. STDERR: Use '--' to separate 
paths from revisions, like this: STDERR: 'git <command> [<revision>...] -- 
[<file>...]' --- . Cause: Error performing command: --- Command --- git 
rev-parse --abbrev-ref HEAD --- Environment --- 
{GIT_ALLOW_PROTOCOL=http:https:ssh:git:file:rsync} --- INPUT ---- --OUTPUT 
--- HEAD --- ERROR --- STDERR: fatal: ambiguous argument 'HEAD': unknown 
revision or path not in the working tree. STDERR: Use '--' to separate 
paths from revisions, like this: STDERR: 'git <command> [<revision>...] -- 
[<file>...]' --- 

Any idea what causes this? Is the above 'modification check' done on the 
GoCD server or the agent?

I've noticed that the pipeline starts fine immediately after I change the 
'Destination Directory' in the Materials setting, just for one time. But 
the next time I try to kick it off, it wont start, and the same error is 
shown. However if I change the Destination Dir again (say to a blank), then 
it starts fine, for one time.

The git repo is a bitbucket repo, and the branch is 'master'. It connects 
fine, as shown here:

Also, I've enabled 'Clean Working Directory' for each stage, however this 
didn't help (I saw this as a recommendation when I searched for this error 
in this forum): 

Thanks,
Hans
