ERROR: Error fetching remote repo 'origin' , returned status code -1:

I am running Jenkins on windows and when I am trying to build my project through jenkins, the following error occurs:

git.exe -c core.askpass=true fetch --tags --progress <url>Assist-Ops.git +refs/heads/*:refs/remotes/origin/*
ERROR: Timeout after 10 minutes
 > git.exe config --local --remove-section credential # timeout=10

Started getting this error after I changed my password.
I have created new SSH key and added it to github repository. I am able to clone the repository and build though command line.

    mvn clean install

For me this error was coming because I was using a string parameter path in my pipeline.

Renaming path to something else fixed it.

try to disable use of the git credential cache using git config --global --unset credential.helper. You may also need to do git config --system --unset credential.helper if this has been set in the system config file

If you read the documentation, you will find that core.askpass is not a boolean value but an external program that is used to ask you for a password. So setting this variable to true is not the right thing to do.
