Not just git.  This driver has known issues with a number of pieces of software. 
 The company I work with uses Delphi quite a bit and they also have Logitech 
WebCams for the devs and for some reason this driver makes debugging impossible 
with Delphi.  I have personally experienced this.  I have also heard of this 
Logitech software having problems with other software too.  I have not however 
tracked down exactly WHY this piece of software causes so much grief, only 
that it does.
