Thank you for posting this report.

I would like to ask for more information, though. Ideally, open a bug report at https://github.com/git-for-windows/git/issues/new which has a template to fill out the most important information.

In particular, I would like to know

- what command you ran, and
- whether you have a reliable reproducer

If this is a bug in Git (or more likely in Git Credential Manager, judging by the error message), you are more likely to receive assistance in fixing that bug on the special-purpose bug tracker on GitHub.
