RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

Description Adam Kaplan 2020-09-04 00:41:20 UTC
Description of problem:

git commands ignore the NO_PROXY environment variable if it has been set when run inside a container, such as ubi8.

This breaks most git actions when run behind a proxy, such as those found in many OpenShift deployments. This impacts OpenShift Builds, OpenShift Pipelines, and those who deploy the upstream Tekton project on Kubernetes.


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

redhat-release-8.2-1.0.el8.x86_64


How reproducible: Always


Steps to Reproduce:

1. Start a ubi8 container with podman:

```
$ podman run --rm -it registry.access.redhat.com/ubi8/ubi /bin/bash
```

2. Install git in the container - `# yum install -y git`
3. Add "bad" _PROXY environment variables:

```
# export HTTP_PROXY=http://user:pass@bad.proxy
# export HTTPS_PROXY=https://user:pass@bad.proxy
```

4. Add Github as an ignorable proxy domain:

```
# export NO_PROXY=github.com
```

5. Clone a github repo:

```
# mkdir -p /tmp/clone-test
# cd /tmp/clone-test
# git clone https://github.com/sclorg/nodejs-ex.git
# echo $?
```

Actual results:

```
# git clone https://github.com/sclorg/nodejs-ex.git
Cloning into 'nodejs-ex'...
# echo $?
128
```

Expected results:

Git clone succeeds, bypassing the proxy.

Comment 2 Ondřej Pohořelský 2020-09-07 14:23:21 UTC
I have tried to replicate this issue in ubi8 container, Fedora container and even full Fedora Workstation installation.
In ubi8 we have git-2.18.4, in Fedora there is git-2.28.0 which is the latest stable release as of today.
Issue seems to be present everywhere. I'll try to investigate further and possibly report this to upstream.

Comment 3 Ondřej Pohořelský 2020-09-11 12:27:27 UTC
I've reported this possible bug to upstream[0]. I'm not completely sure if this behaviour is expected or not.
However I've found a workaround. Add the URL you want to bypass proxy into the .gitconfig.

IOW open ~/.gitconfig and insert these two lines:

```
[http "https://github.com/"]
        proxy = ""
```

Comment 4 Ondřej Pohořelský 2020-09-14 11:29:04 UTC
Upstream investigated this issue and it is not a Git bug, but a Curl bug[0].
It has been already reported in Bug 1873327 and fixed by upstream[1].
