I am using git bash



$ git --version
git version 2.9.3.windows.1


on Windows 7. When I clone a repo, I see:



$ git clone https://UserName@bitbucket.mycompany.org:5555/scm/repofolder/repo.git
Cloning into 'repo'...
Fatal: UriFormatException encountered.

I suspect that some other problems I am experiencing are related to this UriFormatException. Anyone know why the exception might be occurring and how to resolve the issue?

          This happens when using GIT for Windows v2.9.3 and using a repository URL that includes a port number. Rollback to v2.9.2 or wait for a fixed version of GIT for Windows.

          • To rollback, can I just install 2.9.2 over 2.9.3 or do I need to uninstall 2.9.3 first? If I need to uninstall first, how can I do that?

            The GIT for Windows v2.9.2 installer will simply do the downgrade. You can download that version here github.com/git-for-windows/git/releases/tag/v2.9.2.windows.1

          Clean password while setting proxy resolved the issue to me.

                when setting the proxy make sure the username and password does not have any symbols.
                Clean password while setting proxy resolved the issue to me.
