Subject: Cygwin Ports Git fails with Cygwin 1.7.21
Date: Sun, 21 Jul 2013 08:43:00 -0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <CAAXzdLXgCR=Q6wspmDYrxEun3jWcjULLH33io+USO3s0hdK7+w@mail.gmail.com> (raw)

Using Cygwin (1.7.21) with latest Git from Cygwin Ports (1.8.3.1)
causes intermittent failures with "git clone". Example

$ git clone git://source.ffmpeg.org/ffmpeg
Cloning into 'ffmpeg'...
remote: Counting objects: 313620, done.
remote: Compressing objects: 100% (66836/66836), done.
remote: Total 313620 (delta 248823), reused 310587 (delta 246286)
Receiving objects: 100% (313620/313620), 77.14 MiB | 389.00 KiB/s, done.
fatal: pack is corrupted (SHA1 mismatch)
fatal: index-pack failed

Workaround is to use non Cygwin Ports Git.
