Windows10执行make init-dev时Git Clone SSH报错求助

Let’s break down why this is happening and walk through the fixes:

Root Cause #

Your problem boils down to two Windows-specific environment quirks:

1. Misinterpreted SSH URL: The URL in your script uses git@gitlab.com:/goodcommerce/goodcommerce-hydra.git – that extra slash after the colon is unnecessary for GitLab SSH URLs. When make runs via Windows’ default CMD shell, this :/ gets mangled into ;c (CMD treats the colon+slash as a command separator combined with your system drive letter), resulting in the invalid hostname gitlab.com;c.
2. Shell Mismatch: When you run git clone directly, you’re probably using a POSIX-compatible shell like Git Bash or WSL, which handles Git’s SSH syntax correctly. But make on Windows defaults to CMD, which doesn’t understand POSIX shell logic or Git URL formatting the same way.

Step-by-Step Fixes #

1. Correct the Git SSH URL #

First, fix the URL in your make init-dev script to use the proper GitLab SSH format (remove the leading slash after the colon):

if [ ! -d "goodcommerce-hydra" ] ; then 
  git clone "git@gitlab.com:goodcommerce/goodcommerce-hydra.git" "goodcommerce-hydra"; 
  cd goodcommerce-hydra && git checkout "master"; 
fi

2. Force make to Use a POSIX-Compatible Shell #

To ensure make uses a shell that handles your script correctly, add this line at the top of your Makefile:

SHELL := $(shell which bash)

If which bash doesn’t resolve (common in some Windows setups), hardcode the path to Git Bash’s executable (adjust the path if your Git installation is in a different location):

SHELL := C:/Program\ Files/Git/bin/bash.exe

Verify the Fix #

After making these changes, run make init-dev again – it should clone the repository without the hostname error, matching the behavior when you run the git clone command directly.
