Stuck at push, nothing happens


I used to use git before without any problems, but suddenly I can't push or clone anything. When I use this command, nothing happens, not even an error, so I have to press ctrl + c or just close the git window.

I use this simple command for pushing:

git push origin master

Also tried with -u parameter.

  1. I opened port 22 in my firewall, no luck
  2. I used both http and ssh, again no luck
  3. I installed a new version of git, no luck

So, what can I do to solve this?

Update:

I installed a fresh copy of Win XP on virtual machine and tried to push something, same result as before, so maybe there's a problem with my internet connection.

Any ideas?


Solution

  • Update 2021: this is again an issue, when pushing with HTTPS URL, with Git 2.32 (June 2021).

    See details here: there is a bug with the Microsoft Git Credential Manager Core, which is why, as Pinak Ganguly suggests, you might want to switch temporarely to the obsolete Git Credential Manager:

    git config --global credential.helper manager
    

    First, there was some issue with ssh access recently:

    We are currently investigating SSH access problems on one of our fileserver pairs. A small number of repositories may be affected.

    Second, you would need to try and use https, not http:

    git remote set-url origin https://github.com/username/reponame
    

    Third, the git push -u origin master is only for the first push (after that, git push alone is enough: see "Why do I need to explicitly push a new branch?" for more)

    If the push or clone issue still persists, then you need to contact GitHub support to know more about this.
