I don't know what happened to the email in transit, but much information at the head of the email was chopped off. From my outbox, here's the missing bit: ***************** This is the failure mode: $ rm -fr test; git clone git:/repo/git/composer test Cloning into test... fatal: The remote end hung up unexpectedly fatal: early EOF fatal: index-pack failed $ That is not using the git protocol. The machine is called `git'. It fails most of the time, but it definitely works sometimes, and even has stretches of successes. At first, I thought it was isolated to large repos, but it definitely happened on some smaller ones.

You really haven't provided any details beyond "git clone doesn't work" along with cygcheck output. You've previously reported that git worked great. What changed? What is the server that you're cloning from? Another windows machine running Cygwin? A linux box? Solaris? What does "large repo" mean to you? I just tried this on the gcc repo which is, from my point of view, pretty big. The clone succeeded without problem. Where is the server located? Is it on a local network or is it from somewhere on the internet? From my reading of the git documentation, using the host:/path syntax means you're using ssh to connect to the other machine. Have you checked the logs of the server to see if anything is reported? Is this new behavior just seen with this snapshot or is it something you noticed in 1.7.9? If you've just seen it in the latest snapshot it would be useful (as I've previously pleaded) to know in which snapshot the bad behavior first showed up.

Well, I've shown the error message, and now answer the following questions. Hopefully that's enough. >> You've previously reported that git worked great. What changed?

Never seen until the snapshot was installed. More info: Before the failure, I had removed and reinstalled cygwin, then installed the snapshot. The machine on which git works was upgraded little at a time. Kevin

That isn't precise enough. Are you saying that you saw the problem in the 2012-01-23 snapshot but not in the 2012-01-22 snapshot? I'll bet that you aren't. If you think this is a problem only manifested in snapshots then we need to know which snapshot first had the problem. >More info: > >Before the failure, I had removed and reinstalled cygwin, then >installed the snapshot.

However, since the only change to 2012-01-23 was to tweak fifos and, as far as I know, git clone doesn't use a fifo, it's hard to see why there would be a regression in 2012-01-23. cgf

No. I didn't see it in 1.7.9, but do see it in the referenced snapshot. >> >More info: >> > >> >Before the failure, I had removed and reinstalled cygwin, then >> >installed the snapshot.

No, I meant that the machine on which I've never seen the failure, even with the same 1/23 snapshot, had the packages on it upgraded once a month (roughly). I didn't remove everything and reinstall once a month, for example. On the machine that I have seen the errors, I removed everything, because I was in a weird state with my msysgit testing, so I thought it best to start from scratch. I removed msysgit and gnuwin32, as well. >> However, since the only change to 2012-01-23 was to tweak fifos and, as >> far as I know, git clone doesn't use a fifo, it's hard to see why there >> would be a regression in 2012-01-23. If you can think of some other tests I could perform, I'd be happy to do it. The machine with the failures is not a critical development machine, so it's pretty open to what I can do.

I already got through one iteration of cloning all 52 repos, and I wasn't able to do that with the 1/23 snapshot in place. I'll keep running it, in a loop, to see if I ever get a failure.

It took a while, but it works in 11/24 and fails in 11/29. It did about ~500 clones on 11/24, so I'd say that's rock solid. Kevin

It's been all quiet since my email. You could test the latest snapshot 2012-02-01. I ran git on it for a couple of hours with no early EOF.

Done almost 200 clones and no failures. I'll let it run for a few hours and report if there are any failures. Thanks! Kevin
