Git Repo Access issue with application set created through an application which has repo access

[rmehta2974]

apiVersion: argoproj.io/v1alpha1
kind: Application
metadata:
name: certmanager-deploy-application
namespace: argocd
spec:
project: default
source:
repoURL: git@github.com/xxx/xxx-xxxx-v2.git
targetRevision: az-528-1
path: cluster/deployment/non-prod/apps/
directory:
recurse: true
destination:
server: https://kubernetes.default.svc/
namespace: argocd
syncPolicy: {}

which reads the repo and configuration correctly

but I have application set in the search path cluster/deployment/non-prod/apps/cert-manager/cert-manager.yaml

apiVersion: argoproj.io/v1alpha1
kind: ApplicationSet
metadata:
name: cert-manager-multicluster-list2
namespace: argocd
spec:
generators:

• matrix:
  generators:

  - git:
      repoURL: git@github.com/xxx/xxx-xxxx-v2.git
      revision: az-528-1
      directories:
        - path: cluster/deployment/non-prod/apps/cert-manager/*
  
  - list:
     elements:
      - cluster: dev0-ccp-aks
        namespace: cert-manager
        server: https://xxxx.xxxx.xxx
        targetRevision: v1.13.2
        valuesFile: dev0-ccp-aks-values.yaml
      - cluster: management
        namespace: cert-manager
        server: https://kubernetes.default.svc
        targetRevision: v1.13.2
        valuesFile: management-values.yaml
  

template:
metadata:
name: cert-manager-{{cluster}}
spec:
project: default
source:
repoURL: https://charts.jetstack.io/
chart: cert-manager
targetRevision: "{{targetRevision}}"
helm:
valueFiles:

• cluster/argocd/non-prod/apps/cert-manager/common-values.yaml
• cluster/argocd/non-prod/apps/cert-manager/{{valuesFile}}
  destination:
  namespace: "{{namespace}}"
  server: "{{server}}"
  syncPolicy:
  automated:
  prune: true
  selfHeal: true
  syncOptions:
• CreateNamespace=true

Now above code gives following error

error failed to get params for first generator in matrix generator: child generator returned an error on parameter generation: error generating params from git: error getting directories from repo: error retrieving Git Directories: rpc error: code = Internal desc = unable to resolve git revision : repository not found

Here is output of argocd repo list

I ran into this issue when trying to setup an ApplicationSet file in one repository designated for ArgoCD Applications and then sourced the git generator from folders located in a second git repository meant for configurations in my case folders with Helm Charts and Values files.

I had to add a repo https://github.com/ as a credentials template and this got me past this error. I have both the applications and configurations repositories added as repositories with successful connections but only after adding the org as a credentials template was the git generator able to authenticate.

Hope this is helpful for others.
