Re: git stopped working with 1.7.1


<crickets>

I'm a little surprised there are *no* replies to this thread, other
than mine.  (It's not like there is no traffic on the mailing list.)

Can someone tell me what I need to do to interest people in this?

Let me summarize: "git clone" fails with this:

    remote: Compressing objects: 100% (3300/3300), done.
    fatal: The remote end hung up unexpectedly
    fatal: early EOFs:  62% (5708/9205)
    fatal: index-pack failed

The clone is via ssh from a box on my local (10 Gig) network.

This has happened on *two* machines.  Both 64-bit.  One XP.  One
Windows 7.  Both have all recent Windows updates.

The Windows 7 box is a new one.  I installed Windows, the Windows 7
SDK and then cygwin.  Git is the first thing I tried, and it failed.

The XP box I have used for years.  I had a working git until the other
day when I upgraded to cygwin 1.7.1--it fails just like the Windows 7
box after the upgrade.


This seems serious.  Do people just not use cygwin git?

It may be a 64-bit issue, so I'll try a 32-bit machine, if I can
scrounge one up.

Thanks.

Kevin
