Subject: Request: git fetch --timeout
Date: Thu, 01 Nov 2012 14:59:30 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <5092F0C2.1090802@zytor.com> (raw)

Right now, there are events which can cause git fetch to hang forever.
This is really problematic in automatic use.

A git fetch --timeout which would exit with a nonzero exit code if no
forward progress is made would be really helpful.
