How to deny http get requests in IIS running on Windows 2012 R2?

We have requests being made against our TFS Server from various git clients. The requests cause the following unhandled exception logged in the Event Viewer:

Detailed Message: TF30065: An unhandled exception occurred.

enter image description here

I selected the Team Foundation Server site in IIS tried the following:

  1. Under Request Filtering --> Rules I added a deny string as follows: http://tfs:8080/tfs/defaultcollection/_git/ABC%20MainApp%20Post%20Load%20Automation/info/refs?service=git-upload-pack
  2. Under Request Filtering -->URL I added the following Deny Sequence: http://tfs:8080/tfs/defaultcollection/_git/ABC%20MainApp%20Post%20Load%20Automation/info/refs?service=git-upload-pack

The Event Viewer is still logging this error every 15 minutes. How do I block this Get Request in IIS?

Use the Deny URL Sequences tab to create a list of URL sequences for which the request-filtering module will deny access. For example, you can specify admin/config.xml as a URL sequence, which denies requests to http://contoso.com/application/admin/config.xml. You don't need to type the whole URL, check the link below:
