gitlab-ci-multi-runner can't build

Hi all,

When i try to make a build in Gitlab CI, i get always this error :

gitlab-ci-multi-runner 0.3.2 (395f2e4)
Using Shell executor...
Running on XXX...
Fetching changes...
fatal: Failed to resolve 'HEAD' as a valid ref.

Build failed with exit status 128

or this one when i choose to git clone instead of git fetch :

gitlab-ci-multi-runner 0.3.2 (395f2e4)
Using Shell executor...
Running on XXX...
Clonning repository...
Cloning into 'tmp/builds/runner-4600ad8a-project-61-concurrent-0/gitlab.local/vendor/project'...

fatal: reference is not a tree: 869667d0796a7d8d191ec6611c49291365d981c3

Build failed with exit status 128

This makes no sense for me..

Thanks all for help =/

I ran into this too, due to my custom nginx setup. I used the omnibus config as a guide to update it to use the gitlab-git-http-server properly (look for "location ~ [-/\w.]+.git/" in https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/omnibus-gitlab/blob/master/files/gitlab-cookbooks/gitlab/templates/default/nginx-gitlab-http.conf.erb)

Thanks @rschoon!

I believe that this is outdated now, as we now use Workhorse to handle requests to Git repositories, therefore you should use Workhorse now. Feel free to reopen if it doesn't work for you when using a new version of GitLab and GitLab Workhorse.
