Remote URL cannot be accessed for git < 2.7 if SSH isn't working #694
Description
If the system git is < 2.7, and the URL is one that git expects to use SSH access on, but SSH isn't working for any reason, then self.repo.git.remote("show", self.name) here in remote.py will fail with:
GitCommandError: Cmd('git') failed due to: exit code(128)
cmdline: git remote show origin
stderr: 'Permission denied (publickey).
fatal: Could not read from remote repository.
Please make sure you have the correct access rights
and the repository exists.'or related errors if SSH is not installed or on the path.
This can be fixed by falling back to git config --get remote.%s.url' % self.name which just reads the URL directly from the configuration.
