Impact

We can't build our Jenkins build because of this issue. We are migrating the Jenkins jobs to Cloud environment.

To add to this, the Platform Releng jenkins is also experiencing this (or a very similar) issue: https://ci.eclipse.org/releng/job/Builds/job/I-build-4.26/99/console

16:22:12 + git clone -b master git@github.com:eclipse-platform/eclipse.platform.releng.aggregator.git 16:22:12 Cloning into 'eclipse.platform.releng.aggregator'... 16:22:12 ssh_askpass: exec(/usr/libexec/openssh/ssh-askpass): No such file or directory 16:22:12 Host key verification failed. 16:22:12 fatal: Could not read from remote repository. 16:22:12 16:22:12 Please make sure you have the correct access rights 16:22:12 and the repository exists.

The osee/org.eclipse.osee.git repo was up to 5G in size and took 9 minutes to clone. Most of that time was spent in gathering objects, which could have led to timeouts. I've run git gc on the repo, and it's now 700M in size and clones in less than 2 minutes.

@murshedalam Can you try now?

@sdawley your issue is different. Can you file a separate HelpDesk issue please?
