Description
Hi,
I let Windows cleanup some files includeing the tmp files.
Then I hit the following Problem described later.
I am aware of:
"The Git Client plugin uses GIT_ASKPASS and creates a temporary script to execute when git prompts for credentials. " https://wiki.jenkins.io/display/JENKINS/Git+Client+Plugin.
Can I somehow force the plugin to regenerate those temp files like
pass485608812120386475.bat?
Or do you have a other solution on how to fix this problem on my installation?
Regards Stefan

Stefan Eicher were you also using cygwin git on the machine which showed this failure?
Thanks Mark!

As far as I can see, it is planned to be released in git 2.27.0. Fix merged in Git for Windows 2.27.0.
Thanks. I don't run with cygwin and I don't test with cygwin. I have enough complexities in the git plugin testing environment that I have not been willing to extend git plugin support to cygwin. Git for Windows is the git officially supported by the git client plugin.
Independent of official support, I think it is a very good idea to change the git client plugin to use Unix style '/' in the GIT_ASKPASS. I'm marking this bug report as 'newbie-friendly' so that someone can experiment with writing tests to check the condition and then changing the value of GIT_ASKPASS and SSH_ASKPASS to use Unix style '/' in the path instead of the Windows style '\' .
