I'm using deploy_key resource to upload ssh key and then using git resource to
clone the repository. I'm getting below mentioned compilation error.

Here is how my recipe looks like.

deploy_key "bitbucket_key" do
  provider Chef::Provider::DeployKeyBitbucket
  path 'C:\Windows\Temp'
  credentials({
    :user => 'my_user',
    :password => "my_passowrd"
  })
  repo 'organization/repo/path'
  action :add
end

git "C:\\ABC" do
  repository "https://bitbucket.org/organization/repo/path"
  user "my_user"
  action :checkout
end
