I'm currently using Jenkins 1.650 on Windows 2012 and I've upgraded a test instance of Jenkins (cloned from my production server) to 2.25.
As part of this the Git Client plugin was upgraded from 1.19.6 to 2.1.0 and now it cannot authenticate.
I have jobs which run perfectly if I downgrade this plugin again, but when running them using the upgraded plugin the jobs fail. The error output for all is the same:
