Jenkins 2.7.1 is running on Windows Server 2012 R2 (the same error was occurring on Jenkins 2.7.4). I can clone the repo via git command line without any problems. When this happens I can see multiple git processes trees in task manager Screenshot and if I wait for a while I will see this in Jenkins.

Answer 1

The culprit was Git plugin. It started working after update. I was using 2.5.3 version.
