Looking for a little help, please. Is this not a legitimate git issue? Can anyone at least help me diagnose the issue? Please?

I think "git on Cygwin" is as legitimate as git on anything else, but at the same time my guess is that it is a combination of the fact that everybody is busy with other things around the end of year , and that probably there are not many "git on Cygwin" experts monitoring the list to begin with.

Sorry, I do not work on Cygwin (nor Windows in general). "fatal: read error (Socket operation on non-socket)" sounds like it is coming from pkt-line.c::safe_read() on the downloading side (i.e. git-clone).

Googling for that error message seems to indicate that it seems to a rather common error message on wide variety of programs running on Cygwin.

My apologies to the group -- I wasn't really cognizant of the fact that its only been 3 days since my first email. That has now been made abundantly clear to me :)

I've been working on getting git working full-bore since the middle of last week, of which this issue is just part of it, and I'm quickly running out of time (Jan 5 I have to ditch this and go back to my normal tasks). All the days are blurring together.....

Anyhow, thanks for *your* patience with me, despite the lack of manners on my end. A happy & safe New Years to all!
