# Troubleshooting

## How to debug clone issues

(And what to do with an error message like `fatal: could not read Username for 'https://<url>': No such device or address`)
|
||||
|
||||
This error can have multiple causes. If you use internal repositories you might have to enable `WOODPECKER_AUTHENTICATE_PUBLIC_REPOS`:
|
||||
|
||||
```ini
|
||||
WOODPECKER_AUTHENTICATE_PUBLIC_REPOS=true
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
If that does not work, try to make sure the container can reach your git server. In order to do that disable git checkout and make the container "hang":
|
||||
|
||||
```yaml
|
||||
skip_clone: true

|

- wget git.example.com
|
||||
- sleep 9999999
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Get the container id using `docker ps` and copy the id from the first column. Enter the container with: `docker exec -it 1234asdf bash` (replace `1234asdf` with the docker id). Then try to clone the git repository with the commands from the failing pipeline:

```bash

git init

git remote add origin https://git.example.com/username/repo.git

|
||||
The **stable** releases are official versions following [semver](https://semver.org/). By default, only the latest stable release will receive bug fixes. Once a new major or minor release is available, previous minor versions might only receive security patches, but wont be updated with bug fixes anymore (so called backporting) by default.
|
||||
|
||||
The **next** release contains all bugfixes and features from `main` branch. Normally it should be pretty stable, but as its frequently updated, it might contain some bugs from time to time. There are no binaries for this version.
|
||||
|
||||
If you want all (new) features of Woodpecker and are willing to accept some possible bugs from time to time, you should use the next release, otherwise use the stable release.

# About
|
||||
|
||||
Woodpecker has been originally forked from Drone 0.8 as the Drone CI license was changed after the 0.8 release from Apache 2.0 to a proprietary license. Woodpecker is based on this latest freely available version.
|
||||
|
||||
## History
|
||||
|
||||
Woodpecker was originally forked by [@laszlocph](https://github.com/laszlocph) in 2019.
|
||||
|
||||
A few important time points:
|
||||
|
||||
- [`2fbaa56`](https://github.com/woodpecker-ci/woodpecker/commit/2fbaa56eee0f4be7a3ca4be03dbd00c1bf5d1274) is the first commit of the fork, made on Apr 3, 2019.
|
||||
- The first release [v0.8.91](https://github.com/woodpecker-ci/woodpecker/releases/tag/v0.8.91) was published on Apr 6, 2019.
|
||||
- On Aug 27, 2019, the project was renamed to "Woodpecker" ([`630c383`](https://github.com/woodpecker-ci/woodpecker/commit/630c383181b10c4ec375e500c812c4b76b3c52b8)).
|
||||
- The first release under the name "Woodpecker" was published on Sep 9, 2019 ([v0.8.104](https://github.com/woodpecker-ci/woodpecker/releases/tag/v0.8.104)).
|
||||
|
||||
## Differences to Drone
|
||||
|
||||
Woodpecker is a community-focused software that still stay free and open source forever, while Drone is managed by [Harness](https://harness.io/) and published under [Polyform Small Business](https://polyformproject.org/licenses/small-business/1.0.0/) license.

# FAQ
|
||||
|
||||
## What are the differences to Drone?
|
||||
|
||||
Apart from Woodpecker staying free and OpenSource forever, the growing community already introduced some nifty features like:
|
||||
|
||||
- [Multiple workflows](/docs/next/usage/workflows)
|
||||
- [Conditional step execution on file changes](/docs/next/usage/workflow-syntax#path)
|
||||
- [More features are already in the pipeline :wink:](https://github.com/woodpecker-ci/woodpecker/pulls) ...
|
||||
|
||||
## Why is Woodpecker a fork of Drone version 0.8?
|
||||
|
||||
The Drone CI license was changed after the 0.8 release from Apache 2 to a proprietary license. Woodpecker is based on this latest freely available version.
|
||||
|
||||
## Which version of Woodpecker should I use?
|
||||
|
||||
Woodpecker is having two different kinds of releases: **stable** and **next**.
|
||||
|
||||
The **stable** releases (currently version 2.3) are long-term supported (LTS) stable versions. The stable releases are only getting bugfixes.
|
||||
|
||||
The **next** release contains all bugfixes and features from `main` branch. Normally it should be pretty stable, but as its frequently updated, it might contain some bugs from time to time. There are no binaries for this version.
|
||||
|
||||
If you want all (new) features of Woodpecker and are willing to accept some possible bugs from time to time, you should use the next release otherwise use the stable release.

||||
