Git Client 1.5.0+ does not work with Kerberos anymore (empty password in netrc)
Issue Type:
Bug
Assignee:

Components:
git-client

Description:
We are using Kerberos authentication for GIT over HTTPS. We had the setup working with Jenkins plugins git-client 1.0.7 and git 1.4.0.
It seems, since git-client 1.5.0 this type of authentication is broken for GIT in Jenkins. Our Jenkins uses a Kerberos keytab and its netrc contains the Jenkins' Kerberos username, but without password, example for netrc:
machine git.example.com
login JENKINS/jenkins.example.com
Since 1.5.0 git-client tries to pass this empty/missing password to our Webserver (Apache with mod_auth_kerb) and (of course) fails at authentication (HTTP 401).
Commit a3d3d54 (replace "clone" by "init+fetch" so we can configure git to use a local gitcrendentials store) introduces some new credential handling arround netrc. So I think the problem is from this commit, but I'm not 100% sure.
