How do I push to a repo from within a gitlab CI pipeline?
In my CI pipeline I am generating an artifact public/graph.png that visualises some aspect of my code. In a later step I want to commit that to the repo from within the CI pipeline. Here's the pertinent part of .gitlab-ci.yml:
commit-graph:
stage: pages
script:
- git config user.email "[email protected]"
- git config user.name "CI Pipeline"
- cd /group/project
- mv public/graph.png .
- git add graph.png
- git commit -m "committing graph.png [ci skip]"
- echo $CI_COMMIT_REF_NAME
- git push origin HEAD:$CI_COMMIT_REF_NAME
When the pipeline runs within gitlab it fails with:
$ git config user.email "[email protected]"
$ git config user.name "CI Pipeline"
$ cd /group/project
$ mv public/graph.png .
$ git add graph.png
$ git commit -m "committing graph.png [ci skip]"
[detached HEAD 22a50d1] committing graph.png [ci skip]
1 file changed, 0 insertions(+), 0 deletions(-)
create mode 100644 graph.png
$ echo $CI_COMMIT_REF_NAME
jamiet/my-branch
$ git push origin HEAD:$CI_COMMIT_REF_NAME
fatal: unable to access 'https://gitlab-ci-token:[email protected]/group/project/project.git/': server certificate verification failed. CAfile: /etc/ssl/certs/ca-certificates.crt CRLfile: none
Not sure what I'm doing wrong and don't know enough about SSL to understand that error. Can anyone advise?
We are hosting gitlab ourselves by the way.

Solved it. Issuing git config --global http.sslverify "false" prior to the push solved that particular problem (it exposed another problem but that's for another thread :) )
