The source code at that location <https://github.com/jenkinsci/git-client-plugin/blob/git-client-2.2.1/src/main/java/org/jenkinsci/plugins/gitclient/CliGitAPIImpl.java#L455> is trying to clear a workspace before it clones into it.
I like Daniel's suggestion to check for a job which has defined a custom workspace explicitly as the root directory. That seems the most likely cause (to me). You might also check to see if someone used a symbolic link in one of your jobs and made that symoblic link point to the root directory.
