The command that is listed there is a surprise. I think it should say "git ls-remote ..." rather than "ls-remote ...".
I wonder if your Jenkins is unable to locate the Git executable? Check the system configuration screen to see if it is pointing to a non-existent git executable, or possibly to a git executable on the master which does not exist on a slace. You might also check the "Advanced" section of the Jenkins to see if the "fast remote polling" is enabled. I believe the git plugin using the "ls-remote" command to perform fast remote polling. I think that is less likely to be the problem, since the polling command should be "git ls-remote" rather than "ls-remote".
