Git push using jenkins credentials from declarative pipeline

Question

I\'m using jenkins pipeline (declarative synthax) and I want to push a commit to my remote repository.

Is there any way to accomplish this using the git plugin? Here

Answer 1

You can't use username:password for connecting to git repo in script.

You should use ssh key. Please see this answer for more information

Answer 2

We finally figure it out. The problem was simply that we have special characters in our password which break out the url.

Here is the working code:

withCredentials([usernamePassword(credentialsId: env.GIT_CREDENTIAL_ID, usernameVariable: 'USER', passwordVariable: 'PASS')]) {
                    script {
                        env.encodedPass=URLEncoder.encode(PASS, "UTF-8")
                    }
                    sh 'git clone https://${USER}:${encodedPass}@${GIT_URL} ${DIR} -b ${BRANCH}'
                    sh 'git add .'
                    sh 'git commit -m "foobar" '
                    sh 'git push'
                }
