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 -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
