If 'Global Config user.name Value' and/or 'Global Config user.email Value' are not set in the Jenkins configuration then the following error occurs when Jenkins Git tries to checkout a repo:

It seems like these values should be collected from the Git's config:
$ git config --global -l user.name=APipe Tester user.email=apipe-tester@genome.wustl.edu
Or at the very least not crash if they are not filled in.
This issue occurred after a Jenkins deb upgrade and upgrade of plugins.

I've attached the files your requested. Thanks for following up!

I guess you'll have to delete the Jenkins Git user.name and user.email after loading those configs.
I had this issue too, after upgrading to 1.1.8
Was all working fine before upgrade, NPE after.
Setting user.name and user.email in the global config solved it.
ohookins: in irc had the same issue too
I'm still having trouble reproducing this, which is, well, weird. Will keep diving in.
Ah-ha, finally got it to happen. Now I'll figure out a fix. =)
Code changed in jenkins

So yeah, I fixed it. It'll be in 1.1.9, which I think I'm going to push out today.

I'm not able to replicate this in my test setup - could you attach your top-level Jenkins config.xml, the job's config.xml, and, if it exists, the top-level hudson.plugins.git.GitSCM.xml? Thanks.
