      Full Jenkins Console Output has been attached (Jenkins-Git-failed-full-log.txt).

      After analyzed, the error is because of the specified colors set in the ~/.gitconfig.
      The color settings as blow, details can be found from my github:

      [color]
        ui = true
        log = always
        status = always
        add = always
        push = always
        pull = always
        diff = always
        branch = always
        interactive = auto
      [color "branch"]
        current = green bold
        local = yellow
        remote = red
      [color "status"]
        added = yellow
        changed = red bold
        untracked = magenta normal dim
      [color "diff"]
        meta = blue bold
        frag = magenta
        old = red bold
        new = green bold
        whitespace = red reverse
      

      Here the Jenkins job setting:

      Can git plugin "ignore" the settings automatically (the settings like colors). I've Created a question in stackoverflow
