Why would git-upload-pack (during git clone) hang?

Question

I\'ve read several other \'git hangs on clone\' questions, but none match my environment and details. I\'m using git built under cygwin (msys git is not an option) to clone

Answer 1

I was having this same problem after I added some jazz like this to my ssh config in order to set window titles in tmux:

Host *
PermitLocalCommand yes
LocalCommand if [[ $TERM == screen* ]]; then printf "\033k%h\033\\"; fi

getting rid of that fixed my git.
