Note

This page describes the functionality of MettleCI Workbench up to and including version 1.0-1279.
For Workbench version 1.0-1280 and newer see this page: Configuring MettleCI Workbench to communicate with Git over HTTPS

We recommend using the SSH protocol for authentication between MettleCI Workbench and your remote Git repositories as it is easier to manage access in a uniform manner across multiple remote Git repository hosts (Github, Bitbucket, Gitlab, etc). SSH keys also tend to be more secure than username/password credentials.

...

You can then enter Git HTTPS or SSH repository URLS in the project registration page. The ssh or https credentials will be used depending on the configured Git protocol, any username shown in the URL will be ignored and overridden by the settings included in config.yml:

...

Ensure that the Git Repository Server is reachable on Port 443 for HTTPS or Port 80 for HTTP or Port 21 for FTP

Info

Tip
While most Git repository hosts only support HTTPS and SSH protocols, MettleCI Workbench also supports HTTP and FTP. The same httpsUsername and httpsPassword credentials are used, the only difference is the registered Git URL will be prefixed with http:// or ftp:// protocols.
