Admittedly, my problem ended with an oversight on my part. We received 443 errors when connecting our projects to VSTS. The fix was to add entries to our C: \ Users \ .gitconfig file to use the proxy server.
GOOD entries look like this:
[HTTP] proxy = http://username:password@XXX.XXX.X.XXX:XXXX
[HTTPS] proxy = http://username:password@XXX.XXX.X.XXX:XXXX
In my original entries, I accidentally left & lt;> in the URL bar, so I get a UriFormatException error.
Invalid input:
proxy = http://username:<password>@XXX.XXX.X.XXX:XXXX
Hope this helps someone else catch this stupid oversight!
