I am fairly new to the world of Gitlab and am trying to get my head around this Gitlab CI/CD pipeline issue I'm experiencing. I am adjusting a job to run a script in a intermediary branch and then merge this newly created branch into the master.
I am experiencing different issues when trying this but my biggest concern are the 'Unknown switch' error messages I am receiving.
When running:
git push --push-option= merge_request.create --push-option= merge_request.target=master --push-option= merge_request.title="Process Update" --push-option= merge_request.description="Adding changes to master." --push-option= merge_request.merge_when_pipeline_succeeds --push-option= merge_request.assign="r.i"
or the equivalent using:
git push -o merge_request.create -o merge_request.target=master -o merge_request.title="Process Update" -o merge_request.description="Adding changes to master." -o merge_request.merge_when_pipeline_succeeds -o merge_request.assign="r.i"
The message I am met with:
error: unknown switch error: unknown switch `o'
usage: git push [<options>] [<repository> [<refspec>...]]
-v, --verbose be more verbose
-q, --quiet be more quiet
--repo <repository> repository
--all push all refs
--mirror mirror all refs
--delete delete refs
--tags push tags (can't be used with --all or --mirror)
-n, --dry-run dry run
--porcelain machine-readable output
-f, --force force updates
--recurse-submodules[=<check>]
control recursive pushing of submodules
--thin use thin pack
--receive-pack <receive-pack>
receive pack program
--exec <receive-pack>
receive pack program
-u, --set-upstream set upstream for git pull/status
--progress force progress reporting
--prune prune locally removed refs
--no-verify bypass pre-push hook
--follow-tags push missing but relevant tags
What am I missing? A missing module perhaps?
