Unable to create Fabric when pointing to an external Git repository

Issue

• We are trying to create a Fabric by pointing to an external Git repository, e.g. using a command similar to:

  fabric:create  --external-git-url  https://bitbucket.com/user/repo --external-git-user  gituser --external-git-password gitpassword --min-port 3000  --profile fabric --clean  --wait-for-provisioning
  

• This however fails with the execution of any Fabric commands, thereafter raises a NullPointerException:

  JBossFuse:admin@root> fabric:info
  Fabric Release:                1.2.0.redhat-621084
  Error executing command: java.lang.NullPointerException
  
  JBossFuse:admin@admin> container-list
  Error executing command: java.lang.NullPointerException
