I'm not using the git protocol. Note the single slash. The machine
is named `git', which is what is confusing you. Anything of the form
"foo:/path" uses SSH, which is what this is using.
The server is hanging up, yes, but perhaps the client isn't sending
the right responses.

No, it's on a different machine, but there is absolutely nothing wrong
with the repo.
I've tried *THREE* Windows machines now. On all, git stops working
when cygwin is upgraded. Works before. Doesn't work after. Period.
It is not a problem on the server. There are 10+ of people using it
every minute of the day and no one has had a problem. Ever.

It's random (at what percentage) where it dies (with this repo). It
randomly dies with other repos, too.
I did install 1.5.25 on the 64-bit Windows 7 machine and git works
fine. I've sucked an enormous amount of data off the git server with
it, too, and not one problem.
