The "first kind of error" is actually coming from os-autoinst-distri-opensuse so I suggest you create a separate ticket about that in progress.opensuse.org/projects/openqatests/, for the second kind of error I wonder how one can reproduce but we can try with the "openqa-bootstrap" call that you mentioned.

Reported first kind of error in this ticket https://progress.opensuse.org/issues/153015

I found git config --system --add safe.directory '*' can solve the issue. But I am not sure whether this is the only or most suitable way. Replace --system with --global does not solve the issue.

• What user does the /var/lib/openqa/share/tests/opensuse directory belong to?
• As which user are you running openQA tests?
• As which user did you run the git config command? Doing git config --system --add safe.directory '*' defeats the purpose of that git feature and you might want to undo that. If the git directory does not belong to the user running the test, then the config command should be executed for the user running the test, and with --global, not --system, and ideally only with that directory.

Like I said, if the git repo belongs to geekotest and you run tests as waynechen, then you have to run git config --global --add safe.directory /var/lib/openqa/share/tests/opensuse as user waynechen, for each of the directories it complains about. Or, at your own risk, use *. If that doesn't help, then debugging is needed why git isn't seeing that configuration.

How to undo

git config --system --add safe.directory '*'

?

git config --system --unset safe.directory

git config --system --unset safe.directory

git config --global still does not solve the problem, see

fatal: detected dubious ownership in repository at '/var/lib/openqa/share/tests/opensuse/products/sle-micro/needles'
To add an exception for this directory, call:

    git config --global --add safe.directory /var/lib/openqa/share/tests/opensuse/products/sle-micro/needles

Can you do the following as user waynechen?

git config --global --get-all safe.directory
cd /var/lib/openqa/share/tests/opensuse/products/sle-micro/needles
git status
ls -ld

I think I am root in shell and also root when trigge openQA test run using openqa client.
