Hi,

I installed git for windows 2.14.2 (64bit) and was trying to clone a repository from a command terminal (cmd.exe):

git clone https://Netzeband@bitbucket.org/Netzeband/deep-speeddreams.git

First everything went well, but after the repository was downloaded the LFS download started. At this point the terminal window just closed and I was not able to see anything related on the terminal. There was no error message. However several git processes (and git lfs) were running in the background and downloaded everything for the repository (all lfs files).

The same happens if I use the git-bash.

After switching back to 2.13.0 with the same settings during installation, this error did not occur again.

I'm using Windows 10 (b4 bit) which all current updates installed.

Best regards, André

This is most likely the same issue as reported at https://github.com/git-lfs/git-lfs/issues/2631 and at https://github.com/git-for-windows/git/issues/1312.

Ciao, Johannes

I think this is solved by https://github.com/git-for-windows/MSYS2-packages/commit/e9d0a2be272.

If everything goes according to plan, a new snapshot will land at https://wingit.blob.core.windows.net/files/index.html within the next half hour.

When it does, can you please test?

Thank you, Johannes
