Today, I’m going to show you how to fix the error when synchronizing a GIT project with Jenkins, which returns:
stderr: error: object file .git/objects/ad/.... is empty error: object file .git/objects/ad/.... is empty
This occurs because there is a corrupt file in the Jenkins Git. To fix it, we need to delete the caches it stores using this command:
Local installation:
cd /var/jenkins_home/caches sudo rm -rf ./*
Installation with Jenkins Docker container:
- Access the bash of the running Jenkins container:
docker exec -it jenkins bash
- Use the following command to access the cache and delete it:
cd /var/jenkins_home/caches rm -rf ./*
