I saw similar reports on the Git for Windows bug tracker. Probably the most relevant one is this here: https://github.com/git-for-windows/git/issues/1562

In essence, the culprit there seems to be an overzealous anti-malware called Comodo Internet Security. Maybe your setup has the same problem?

Ciao, Johannes
