      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 the createUnixGitSSH method in CliGitAPIImpl.java should explicitly close the PrintWriter before returning?  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
