[SOLVED] Git hangs on cloning

I've upgraded my system from Devuan 2 to Devuan 4 and now git hangs on cloning any repository. Example:

# GIT_TRACE=1 GIT_CURL_VERBOSE=1 git clone --verbose https://github.com/punesemu/puNES
02:04:36.418257 git.c:444               trace: built-in: git clone --verbose https://github.com/punesemu/puNES

02:04:36.514429 http.c:756              == Info: ALPN, offering http/1.1

I did upgrade to Devuan 3 first, i did not skipped it. cURL is able to fetch pages without errors. I do not know if git is able to clone if HTTP is used instead of HTTPS, because every repo i know instantly redirects the request to HTTPS.

# apt policy git

I do not use firewall or proxy.

Any tips on this?

Probably a stupid suggestion... smile
There is a ready Devuan with TDE https://exegnulinux.net/
Works without problems.
Might be easier to install?

I'm on Chimaera & an upgrade included git just now (minutes earlier). However, no idea if that will have fixed *your* problem.

TDE was installed in 2015, when i migrated to SSD-s and switched to Debian 7 from Ubuntu 10.04. Since then i just update it without problems. But seriously, what has TDE do with git being unable to connect? big_smile
But thanks for the tip, i did not know about that distro.

Re: [SOLVED] Git hangs on cloning

This Perl code

#!/usr/bin/perl

use strict;
use LWP::UserAgent; 

my $token="";

my $uri = 'https://github.com/punesemu/puNES'; 
my $json => '{"username":"user","password":"pwd"}'; 
my $req = HTTP::Request->new('POST', $uri ); 
$req->header( 'Content-Type' => 'application/json'); 
$req->content( $json );

my $lwp = LWP::UserAgent->new;

my $message = $lwp->request( $req ); 

if ( $message->is_success ) {
    my $token= $message->content;
    print "\n Received POST Response:\n$token\n";
} else {
    print "error code:",    $message->code,"\n";
    print "error message:", $message->as_string(), "\n"; 
}

gives back 403, because of cookies. Stupid question, but this cannot be the reason behind git's hanging, right?

In my experience, this is often the easiest and fastest way to get a working system.
I don't need the source codes, just out of curiosity I installed git now and entered your command, here is the result. This is the same exegnu.

No, because it's about GitHub not Git, and I'm fairly sure a 4xx response would not cause Git to hang - it'd fail with an error message.

What does this give:

curl -isS --user-agent 'git/2.30.2' 'https://github.com/punesemu/puNES/info/refs?service=git-upload-pack' | head -n20

If it fails, add --insecure --verbose --trace-time options and try again.

Does git clone work if you bypass network (i.e. git clone file:///path/to/local/repo.git/ repo_copy)?

Have you tried cloning using ssh and/or git protocols?

Good idea: yes, it does.

So the problem is not with git itself.

git, yes, and it failed too:

ssh, not until now, because i've never tried that before. I made now an RSA key for github, put it unto github's keystore and then tried to clone, which worked like a charm.

So, it is not a git + network issue either.

Thanks for this tip, now even if git still refuses to work with HTTPS, i can clone with SSH. (But it would be good, if i would not need authentication at all.)

Re: [SOLVED] Git hangs on cloning

If Curl needs the --insecure option then it's a certificate issue, otherwise that's probably fine.

If you repeat the Curl command but force HTTP/1.1 with --http1.1 does it make any difference? (I doubt it, but worth ruling out.)

Have you tested non-GitHub URLs, e.g. from git.kernel.org - there's lots of sizable repos there, but https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/docs/man-pages/website.git/ is only 0.5MB

If that works, I would guess you may have something configured that makes GitHub want to login, e.g. check git config --list | grep github

If it doesn't... is testing with a newer Git from backports an option?

Re: [SOLVED] Git hangs on cloning

SSL config misery?

Maybe try curl with the key " k"?

curl -k https://your_link.com

It can be read here

curl --help all

Or https://reqbin.com/req/c-bw1fsypn/curl-ssl-request

P.S.In my case, the command works without this key, an ssl connection is created.
From what you can see, my system has no repository

Re: [SOLVED] Git hangs on cloning

Pretty sure this is caused by the OP running a FrankenDevuan system. See the daemonforums thread for full details.

By adding the repositories of TDE, LLVM and Mono, i've made a FrankenDevuan system? How TDE, LLVM or Mono is related to git? What packages they could install which results in git being unable to pull stuff via HTTPS? How is a bunch of desktop applications, a C compiler and some dotnet libraries can do that? And why did not they do this with Debian 7, Debian 8 and Devuan 2?

Re: [SOLVED] Git hangs on cloning

Okay, i've solved it.

I've started to look around GNUTLS packages and i've found an old GNUTLS packages from Debian 8: libgnutls-deb0-28. Tried to remove it and much to my surprise, i could not, because half of the system would gone with it. I did apt-cache rdepends libgnutls-deb0-28 --installed and i've ran into the solution. The cause was librtmp1. It was not upgraded neither when i was upgrading from Debian 8 to Devuan 2, nor when i was upgrading from Devuan 2 to 3 and from 3 to 4. Because it was some kind of backported version of Debian 8's librtmp1 which had a higher version number than any of the later Debian/Devuan versions. Well, it actually had a lower one than Devuan 4's version, but due to a different - a higher - ASCII character separating the equivalent version number from the lower date, APT thought, it was actually higher.

So, the solution was to downgrade the older package to the newer, from 2.4~20150315.gita107cef9b-dmo1+deb8u2 to 2.4+20151223.gitfa8646d.1-2+b2. Now git works perfectly.

Thanks, everyone.

Re: [SOLVED] Git hangs on cloning

That librtmp1 package is not from Debian or Devuan. It is listed in that "damage.log" you posted over at daemonforums.org and it was from one of those crappy third party repositories.

So if you had done what I told you to:

I wrote:

You can try removing all of the stuff installed from those repositories to see if that fixes git. Given that git works fine in the "pure" live environment I would expect that to be the case. Good luck!

Then you wouldn't have wasted everybody's time and effort here...

Re: [SOLVED] Git hangs on cloning

After reading this thread, my head hurts and I want to down a gallon of Pinot Grigio. tongue


I have been Devuanated, and my practice in the art of Devuanism shall continue until my Devuanization is complete. Until then, I will strive to continue in my understanding of Devuanchology, Devuanprocity, and Devuanivity.

Veni, vidi, vici vdevuaned. I came, I saw, I Devuaned. wink

First, when i said "from Debian 8", i mean't my old Debian 8 system, not the Debian 8 repo.

Second, it came from a third party repo which was removed from the system years ago and not from TDE, LLVM or Mono.

Third, damage.log contained a list of 1188 packages. You really did not think that removing them one by one and testing if git becomes alive is a viable option, did you? Not mentioning time, it contained tons of programs i use. Therefore what you've told me to do was simply could not be done.
