I figured out my primary mistake. All the docs give urls of the form http:/server/jenkins/workflowLibs.git. This format assumed that the Jenkins server itself was not located at server root but at the jenkins endpoint beneath the server root. To the contrary my install has Jenkins at the server root, making the correct URL *http://jenkins:8080/workflowLibs.git <http://www.google.com/url?q=http%3A%2F%2Fjenkins%3A8080%2Fjenkins%2FworkflowLibs.git&sa=D&sntz=1&usg=AFQjCNHln8ZUXRYvHGvOtBpYSgRE-5F0iQ>. *A quick look at the source helped to figure that out.
The repo seems to behave oddly though. I can push to it and I can see my changes actually on the server if I ssh into the server and look at the /home/jenkins/workflow-lib folder but I cannot clone or pull from the repo. Git tells me I tried to clone an empty repo. Its like the repo is write only or some such. Anyway the initial issue is resolved. I'll look into the empty-repo business later.
