The git plugin is not installed by default. The Git plugin is listed in the "Available" tab of the Update Center as "Jenkins GIT plugin<http://wiki.jenkins-ci.org/display/JENKINS/Git+Plugin>". It will also include the "Git Client Plugin<http://wiki.jenkins-ci.org/display/JENKINS/Git+Client+Plugin>" when you select it.
Some questions that come to mind for consideration: - How many plugins are listed in the "Available" tab of the "Update Center"? If it is less than several hundred. then you probably have a connectivity issue to the Jenkins update center and are not seeing the plugins that are available. If you have a proxy between you and the public internet, you may need to use the Jenkins global configuration or the Update Center configuration to provide that proxy information. - Can you reach the Jenkins Update Center from your web browser? Does http://updates.jenkins-ci.org/update-center.json return a page of JSON information?
