in order to work with ssh cloning, one has to manually install openssh-client to the docker image, looks like that

Correct, you have to have SSH inside the container so that git can use it.
You can always install with the following setup inside your agent's clearml.conf:
extra_docker_shell_script: ["apt-get install -y openssh-client", ]

I don't think so. it is solved by installing openssh-client to the docker image or by adding deploy token to the cloning url in web ui

You can also have the token (token==password) configured as the defauylt user/pass in your agent's clearml.conf

for https cloning, deploy token is needed

(this is an answer to the previous message)

Hi MelancholyElk85

I have strong deja vu feeling. Credentials are OK. How to solve this? If you need the full log, how to share the full log without sharing private information? I'm fed up with this shit

Is this coming from the agent ?
