    Hi Chira,

     

    What issues are you having exactly? What version of RA and the action pack are you using?

     

    Thanks,

    Bryan

    Hi Bryan,

    We are using RA 5.5.1 w nolio-git-actions pack 10.3.1503.1. The screenshots of the action 'Git -Clone' are below. If we do not specify 'Cloning to Directory' parameter, it fails with an error that path not specified. If we provide the path, it fails with an error that too many parameters are passed (as in image2). Thanks!

    The action pack currently supports git 1.9.0 and 1.8.4. It is working under my git 1.9.5

    As per suggestion from Adam, Sr Support Engineer, we added 'master' as the parameter for Branch field and it worked as expected on both windows and linux, irrespective of versions. Thansk Adam!!
