I'm trying to install my pods with pod install, it prints
Setting up CocoaPods master repo
and it takes too long time and nothing installing. Is that a bug or that's my mistake? Can I fix that problem?

This little change saved me more than 10 minutes. Executing "pod install" now takes less than 2 minutes, while before making this changes it took about 12 minutes.
Just rm -rf that pod's folder, and remove the line from the Podfile. Then run pod install again.
This is to be used the first time you want to retrieve the pods for the project, but also every time you edit your Podfile to add, update or remove a pod. Every time the pod install command is run — and downloads and install new pods — it writes the version it has installed, for each pods, in the Podfile. lock file.
The difference between pod install and pod update lies in how they interact with the Podfile. lock file. This file is used to store the exact version of each pod that is currently installed in your project.
Yes these problems often occur in first time installation.
So these are what I did to solve it:
1. pod setup
It will do "setting up master" again, DONT' WAIT, continue these steps below
2. Ctrl +C
3. pod repo remove master
4. cd ~/.cocoapods/repos
5. git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/CocoaPods/Specs.git master
It takes around 5 minutes for me (I think it depends on internet connection), then I can do "pod install".

Expanding my comment.
CocoaPods is so popular and heavy, so GitHub is limiting rate for downloading.
From user
mhagger, an engineer on GitHub’s infrastructure team:The slow fetches and clones (which sometimes time out) that the CocoaPods community is experiencing are caused by automatic rate limiting on our servers, which is done to make sure that extremely high levels of load in one repository cannot impact other GitHub users. The CocoaPods/Specs repository is more or less permanently being rate limited.
There have been approximately 1.1 Million clones/fetches from CocoaPods/Specs in the past week. This activity has kept, on average, more than 5 server CPUs permanently pegged, and used several terabytes of bandwidth out of our datacenters. There are only a handful of other repositories in all of GitHub that even come close to this level of activity. As far as I know, this level of activity is not new, but has been going on for many months and probably longer. Suffice it to say that the name CocoaPods/Specs is quite well known within our team.
