Docker-gitlab: fatal: git fetch-pack: expected shallow

[cyklodev]

I just notice that my gitlab-runner stop working after upgrade gitlab image to 12.0.0 (centos 7).

Running with gitlab-runner 12.1.0 (de7731dd) on gitlab-runner-shell UsRs12q Using Shell executor... Fetching changes with git depth set to 50... Reinitialized existing Git repository in /home/gitlab-runner/builds/UsRs12q/0/group/project/.git/ fatal: git fetch-pack: expected shallow list fatal: The remote end hung up unexpectedly

Similar to Issue 60466 but on gitlab 12.0.0 and gitlab-runner 12.1.0 .

The fix is to upgrade git in 2.X , Instruction for Centos 7 below

git --version git version 1.8.3.1 yum remove git* yum -y install https://centos7.iuscommunity.org/ius-release.rpm yum -y install git2u-all git --version git version 2.16.5

To bad that the upgrading section of the readme didn't warn about that.

Hey @cyklodev,

I think you aren't using this image in the image is the latest git version available. Here is a screenshot of an version from 12.0.3 .
