I'm trying to incorporate Jenkins Maven Release plugin with Git and the job is failing because it can't find the git executable.
My git repo is setup with ssh and I can execute the Git command on the Jenkins server. I can run a build using Jenkins and everything is pulled down from the Git repo successfully.
But when I try to do a release, Jenkins fails to find the git command. What am I doing wrong?
Jenkins Info:
- Version 1.504
- Git Plugin 1.2.0
- Git Client Plugin 1.0.3
- Running on Windows Server 2008
Git Installed on the Windows server - 1.8.1.msysgit.1
