Recenlty reconnected our Gitlab repo back up as a PushOnly connection. It showed a successful sync for changes made since it was disconnected, but now it fails every minute and throws this error in the logs

Our git server doesn’t have any redirects that I know of. Just a basic GitLab instance with LDAP auth.

This error is a bit misleading. It typically means something is wrong with the credentials.

Forums – 22 Mar 19
There is an outstanding issue on the lib2gitsharp repo about this. Some mention that reverting to an older version worked for them. PSU is using the latest version: 0.27.0-preview-0182.

I just verified the credentials work correctly in the webUI for GitLab (copied and paste the username and password directly from the appsetttings.json).

I removed the dedicated Universal Credentials for Git and used my account and still get the same error.

Ok. I’ll open an issue for this. Others have definitely seen this problem.

@AnonymousUser - I’ve added some additional info to the GitHub issue: Git Sync - Too Many Redirects · Issue #1160 · ironmansoftware/issues · GitHub

Can you please try the git remote format I suggested?

I’ll respond on the issue.

Just had this issue as well with Github, I tried all the above with no luck. I ended up needing to nuke the local repo and generate a new Github token then re-sync everything with PSU.

Seems to be working as expected after that.
