hang in git.Repo.clone_from ... redux

[timblechmann]

same issue as #72.

the task seems to hang in:

git.Repo.clone_from( url, tempFolder, branch=commit, depth=1, quiet=True ) 
File "C:\Users\developer\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python35\lib\site-packages\git\repo\base.py", line 849, in clone_from 
return cls._clone(Git(os.getcwd()), url, to_path, GitCmdObjectDB, progress, **kwargs) 
File "C:\Users\developer\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python35\lib\site-packages\git\repo\base.py", line 800, in _clone 
finalize_process(proc) 
File "C:\Users\developer\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python35\lib\site-packages\git\util.py", line 154, in finalize_process 
proc.wait() 
File "C:\Users\developer\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python35\lib\site-packages\git\cmd.py", line 311, in wait 
raise GitCommandError(self.args, status, self.proc.stderr.read())

Have you tried using the latest version from this repository ?

The one on PIP is quite old, and I find myself unable to update pip as it looked me out permanently.

[timblechmann]

pip locked you out? we are using pip as main distribution mechanism for python dependencies, so for now i have to use it ...

I think you can tell pip to install from github.

seems to be fixed with the new release of gitpython
