In order to do the pre-publish steps for wvui, the docker container needs access to git credentials. Pipelinelib only has the ability to pass text credentials to the container, but we need ssh key credentials.

@jeena Just want to make sure we're on the same page about how we're authenticating with gerrit!
The open experimental patch is to authenticate via ssh keys using docker-compose secrets instead of username/pass. But if it's preferred to use username/pass setup in Jenkins instead (or if it will open up opportunities for future projects) I can definitely halt any more experimenting on that patch
@nnikkhoui Sorry, I did not understand that from our conversation. Since there are some concerns about the docker-compose secrets method in this change https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/c/wvui/+/640245, I'll wait until we decide on an authentication methods before updating this task.
