.netrc not being used in GitLab CI server

I'm trying to create a CI/CD pipeline, in particular an automated deployment job.

In the deploy stage I push my image to Heroku.

First, we need to authenticate with Heroku. This is done by placing the username and password in the ~/.netrc file.

This works when testing locally!

However, has no affect when on the remote GitLab CI server (even though I cated it and can see the credentials in the ~/.netrc file). I get an authorisation error when trying to push my image.

Why might this happen. Security reasons? On remote servers are ~/.netrc files typically off limits? (i.e. does the system recognise a different .netrc file, not the standard one in the home directory?)

Thanks, really bugging me.
