      Occasionally I get the following git error early in some of my pipeline builds, but have not been able to reproduce the issue during testing.

      Perhaps theĀ createUnixGitSSH method inĀ CliGitAPIImpl.java should explicitly close theĀ PrintWriter before returning?Ā  Or maybe it just needs to flush the stream, and the script should be executed as "sh tmpfile.sh" instead of "./tmpfile.sh" ?

      using GIT_SSH to set credentials 
 > git ls-remote -h -t git.example.org:/var/git/foo.git # timeout=10
