I’ve just setup RSpec tests on TeamCity 4.0.2 buildserver for my rails project that is located under GIT version control!
To install git plugin see instructions. If you don’t want to build git plugin manually your can take my build (22 march, 2009). Also I zipped it with correct folder structure (download gitagentzip.png and rename to “gitAgent.zip” )
Also don’t forget to:
1. Setup Project Directory (Server): path in VCS settings. This is destination path to folder where Git plugin will clone git repository.
E.g. your VCS Git settings will be like this:
If you leave Project Directory(Server) empty you will see NullPointer Exception:

2. Set VCS checkout mode to “Automatically on agent (if supported by VCS)”
3. git should be in system PATH
And my Rake build runner settings are:
Enjoy!
