Delete the .netrc file created during a QA test
What does this MR do?
A couple of tests were failing authentication after project_archive_compare_spec
added two users to the .netrc
file.
This is a workaround that removes the .netrc
file after project_archive_compare_spec
so that subsequent tests won't use the wrong credentials.
However, a better solution would be to make it simpler to test pushing to different URLs as the same user (QA::Git::Repository
does all of its file system work in a temp directory that's created each time perform
is called. We use a .netrc
file stored in a temp directory named after the process id so that we can test pushing to primary and secondary nodes in Geo tests using the same user) https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/quality/team-tasks/-/issues/670
