I'm trying to configure my Jenkins job to connect to Altassian Stash. I'm using the git plugin for Jenkins.

Here the job configuration details- under source code management, choose git:

Repository Url: https://lab.xyz.com/stash/scm/projects/sandbox.git

Credentials: jenkinuser/password (defined in the global credentials of Jenkins configuration)

I get the following error:

Failed to connect to repository:  
Could not init C:\Windows\TEMP\hudson1141847846411984817tmp

(The tmp name keeps changing).

Appreciate any help. Thanks.

I know its a little late but this worked for me:

Check if you have install git on the Jenkins server, and check if you have set the git executable path in the Jenkins configuration

More specifically go to 'Manage Jenkins' -> 'Global Tool Configuration' and check the 'Path to Git executable' field.
