After that, reset all your Git repositories in ContinuaCI.

To view all the repositories on the server, follow either of these steps:

• A:

  2. Click on the shield icon in the top bar.
  3. Then click on “CI Server”.
  4. In the list on the left, scroll down and click “Repositories”.
• B:
  1. Logon as an administrator with the rights to view all repositories on the Continua CI server.
  2. Note the URL in the address bar of your browser (for instance http://localhost:8080/ci).
  3. Replace the /ci part of your URL with /administration/ci/repositories (so you end up at something like http://localhost:8080/administration/ci/repositories).
  4. Go to that URL.

Now you are in the repositories section, where you see all the repositories configured on the Continua CI. Each repository has a [Reset] link in the right most column.

Then follow these steps:

1. For all Git repositories,
   1. Click on the [Reset] link.
   2. Confirm the “Are you sure you want to reset this repository?” question by clicking “Yes”.
2. Wait for all Git repositories to be marked “Ready” and have a green checkmark icon.

The Git repositories will go through these states to become “Ready”:

1. Initialising
2. Updating cache
3. Getting changessets
4. Ready
