Regarding this I found one issue.

I had java application on 'Windows System A', I am pulling from remote repository from 'Windows System B'

For pulling I am using following code.

PullCommand pull = git.pull();
pull.setCredentialsProvider(new UsernamePasswordCredentialsProvider(userName, password));
pull.call();

Now if before running program on 'Windows System A', if I had not open 'Windows System B's shared location then that program fail and throws following error

InvalidRemoteException

But If I open 'Windows System B''s shared location once on 'Windows System A', and then run program then it run successfully.

The way I am setting credentials is not working, so can you please guide me?

Thanks,
Hardik

In addition to my last comment.

I am testing that scenario in file protocol,

and also that issue occurs when if we open 'Windows System B' shared location on 'Windows System A' and it asks for user name and password and if we do not enter so that means user name and password is not saved or cached on that machine and then run java application.

Thanks,
