git svn clone stuck on perl.exe

Question

I have executed command (Windows 10, Git BASH):

$ git svn clone <svn app-url>/trunk
Initialized empty Git repository in C:/TEMP/svn-git/trunk/.git/

and after it got stuck. No further logs, nothing.

The only thing i can see is that perl.exe is using loads of resources:

I have tried the same command on other windows PC in same network and it worked fine - started to get all revisions from r100 etc and finished in about an hour without problems.

Should I just be patient with this one?

Answer 1

Thanks to A.H. I have installed version 2.18.0 and it worked!

It seems that there is some issue with the 2.20.1 version of Git for Windows which gets stuck on perl.exe. It seems to be connected with this ticket in github - I have tested 2.20.0 and it also works fine so the problem is only with the latest Git version.
