Jenkins could not run git

Question

I\'ve installed Jenkins on my mac (osx lion). But I couldn\'t get it work. This is the stacktrace I\'ve got:

I had similar problem, the solution for Windows looks the same (my Jenkins is installed on a Windows machine):

Global settings:

Go to Manage jenkins -> Configure System -> Git installations add there the git exe path (for example: C:\Program Files\Git\bin\git.exe), or you can use environment variable.

For Jenkins version 2.121.3, Go to Manage jenkins -> Global tool configuration -> Git installations -> Path to Git executable: C:\Program Files\Git\bin\git.exe

Jenkins job side:

Go to Source code Management -> select git, add your repository, choose connection to repository (http/ssh) and add credentials and it should work.
