I created https://markwaite.visualstudio.com/ . I was able to upload the git client plugin source code and checkout from that repository into a Jenkins job using my Visual Studio Online user name and password in the credentials associated with the Jenkins job.
I confirmed I could checkout on Windows and Linux machines using both command line git and JGit as the implementation. I used https://markwaite.visualstudio.com/DefaultCollection/_git/git-client-plugin as the git URL. I was not able to clone using https://username:password@ markwaite.visualstudio.com/DefaultCollection/_git/git-client-plugin (where I replaced username with my user name and password with my password). It could be that you're encountering an unexpected incompatibility between your version of git and Visual Studio Online (possibly as described in http://stackoverflow.com/questions/3778042/github-error-cloning-my-private-repository ) I'm not sure what other ideas to offer you. One of the cases you described works for me. One of the cases you described (username:password) also fails for me. I suspect that is the same git plugin bug which causes bitbucket repositories with username and password embedded in the URL to fail. Refer to https://issues.jenkins-ci.org/browse/JENKINS-26757 for more information on that bug.
