      We are observing the same problem on our server. Any job containing the word "plink" fails to clone. Since we are using a multi-branch pipeline, this causes any branch with the word "plink" to mysteriously fail.

       The logs show this strange error message.

      stderr: getaddrinfo: atch: Name or service not known

      Then it tries to use the port from the URL as if were a hostname.

      ssh: connect to host 7999 port 22: Success

      I don't know how that connection could have succeeded. Then we get another error.

      fatal: Could not read from remote repository.

       See attached logs.
