Clones from ssh://git@gitea.officer.dev:2222/officerdev/platform.git, or uses the
checkout already at $OFFICER_ROOT/platform.
Cloned as the account, never as root. A repository owned by root is one the owner
cannot pull, cannot commit in, and whose node_modules they cannot write — and
every later section in this script writes into that directory as them.
Three things it refuses to do quietly:
It does not repoint an existing remote. This checkout points at
gitea.pastilhas.dev rather than the new gitea.officer.dev; that is reported
with the command to change it, because where somebody's work pushes to is
their decision.
It does not pull over uncommitted changes. A dirty tree means the pull is
skipped and said so, rather than failing halfway or burying the work.
It pulls with --ff-only, so a failure means the branch has diverged rather
than that the network was down, and the message says which.
SSH reachability is checked before the clone, not after. An ssh URL with no
usable key does not fail cleanly: git prompts for a password nobody is there to
type, or stops on host-key verification. BatchMode turns both into an immediate
answer, and the check reads the server's response rather than the exit code —
Gitea greets a successful authentication and then exits 1, so exit status alone
reports success as failure.
When the key is missing it offers the https form of the same URL, which works
without a key if the repository is readable anonymously, and otherwise stops and
says to add the key. Verified against the new host: ssh authentication from this
account already works.
