Create a Git Repository in the Workspace namespace

Use the CLI to create the GitRepository resource and add a new repository to your Workspace.

Refer to Air-gapped Environment setup instructions section, if you are running in air-gapped environment.
Set the WORKSPACE_NAMESPACE environment variable to the name of your workspace’s namespace:
CODE
```
export WORKSPACE_NAMESPACE=<workspace_namespace>
```

Adapt the URL of your Git repository:

CODE

kubectl apply -f - <<EOF
apiVersion: source.toolkit.fluxcd.io/v1
kind: GitRepository
metadata:
  name: example-repo
  namespace: ${WORKSPACE_NAMESPACE}
  labels:
    kommander.d2iq.io/gitapps-gitrepository-type: catalog
    kommander.d2iq.io/gitrepository-type: catalog
spec:
  interval: 1m0s
  ref:
    branch: <your-target-branch-name> # e.g., main
  timeout: 20s
  url: https://github.com/<example-org>/<example-repo>
EOF

Ensure the status of the GitRepository signals a ready state:

CODE

kubectl get gitrepository example-repo -n ${WORKSPACE_NAMESPACE}

The repository commit also displays the ready state:

CODE

NAME         URL                                                        READY   STATUS                                                              AGE
example-repo https://github.com/example-org/example-repo                True    Fetched revision: master/6c54bd1722604bd03d25dcac7a31c44ff4e03c6a   11m

Troubleshoot

To troubleshoot issues with adding the GitRepository, review the following logs:

CODE

kubectl -n kommander-flux logs -l app=source-controller
[...]
kubectl -n kommander-flux logs -l app=kustomize-controller
[...]
kubectl -n kommander-flux logs -l app=helm-controller
[...]
