I am trying to run a script with GitPython, but it seems to only fail when I run from inside the Jenkins automation environment. The error that it gives isn't very helpful (and I haven't been able to find a solution for it in my searching), so I'm hoping someone here can help.
Here's some data for my setup.
- Git version: 2.45.2
- python version: 3.12.4 (in a virtual environment)
- GitPython module: 3.1.43
Error encountered (proprietary pathnames and other secrets removed):
Traceback (most recent call last):

git.exc.GitCommandError: Cmd('git') failed due to: exit code(1)
cmdline: git pull -v -- origin
Sample of the code that causes it (secrets also removed):
import os
from git import Repo
repository = Repo(".")
repository.remote().pull()
Is there an environment variable that might be missing from the Jenkins run, that would be included when I run it locally?
git pull -v -- originwork if you run it manually? Do you need authorization to pull from the remote repository? Remember, Jenkins is (probably) running as a different user than you.
