Now trying a precompiled git version: >"c:\Program Files\Git\bin\git.exe" fetch remote: Counting objects: 567, done. remote: Compressing objects: 100% (149/149), done. remote: Total 317 (delta 238), reused 216 (delta 167) Receiving objects: 100% (317/317), 134.38 KiB | 20 KiB/s, done. Resolving deltas: 100% (238/238), completed with 65 local objects.
