I am using git bash
$ git --version
git version 2.9..windows.
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.
2.9.3(2) is now available which also fixes this issue github.com/git-for-windows/git/releases/tag/v2.9.3.windows.2
