Bandit Level 31 –> Level 32

Level Goal

There is a git repository at ssh://bandit31-git@localhost/home/bandit31-git/repo. The password for the user bandit31-git is the same as for the user bandit31.

Clone the repository and find the password for the next level.

Commands you may need to solve this level

git

Solution

Make dir in tmp folder then clone repository

bandit31@bandit:~$ mkdir /tmp/repolev31
bandit31@bandit:~$ cd /tmp/repolev31
bandit31@bandit:/tmp/repolev31$ git clone ssh://bandit31-git@localhost/home/bandit31-git/repo

repo contain README file

bandit31@bandit:/tmp/repolev31$ cd repo
bandit31@bandit:/tmp/repolev31/repo$ ls
README.md
bandit31@bandit:/tmp/repolev31/repo$ cat README.md 
This time your task is to push a file to the remote repository.

Details:
    File name: key.txt
    Content: 'May I come in?'
    Branch: master

so our task is to push a file to repo, first lets make a file contain this text

bandit31@bandit:/tmp/repolev31/repo$ nano key.txt
bandit31@bandit:/tmp/repolev31/repo$ cat key.txt 
May I come in?

After that add and commit our change

bandit31@bandit:/tmp/repolev31/repo$ git add .
bandit31@bandit:/tmp/repolev31/repo$ git commit
On branch master
Your branch is up-to-date with 'origin/master'.
nothing to commit, working tree clean

That mean there is something prevent change lets see hidden files

bandit31@bandit:/tmp/repolev31/repo$ ls -a
.  ..  .git  .gitignore  key.txt  README.md
bandit31@bandit:/tmp/repolev31/repo$ cat .gitignore
*.txt

So all file with extension .txt ignored, we should force it to change

git add -f key.txt
git commit 
git push
