git fatal: error in sideband demultiplexer

git fatal: error in sideband demultiplexer

[孙琦]

Hi git experts,

I ran into one annoying  issue when using git to clone repository on windows 7.

I tried to clone the repository in the intranet.
git clone git://10.59.8.235/test/t10
The returned information is as below:

Cloning into newdb...
remote: Counting objects: 1231592, done.
remote: Compressing objects: 100% (239755/239755), done.
Receiving objects: 100% (1231592/1231592), 2.70 GiB | 4.93 MiB/s, done.
fatal: read error: Invalid argument
Resolving deltas: 100% (935560/935560), done.
fatal: error in sideband demultiplexer

Everything looks good expect the two errors. And at last, nothing is
copied in the local folder.
The server is running by myself in another Windows 2008 Server with
1.7.6.msysgit.0 installed. And I tested the clonging on another SUSE
Linux, it works normally when cloning the same repository.

I googled and found no answer to the issue. I'm not sure where the
cause is, due to the server side config, or the client side config?
Can you expert guys give some diagnosis on the issue?

Thanks,
Cheney

Could you please try that again with "GIT_TRACE=1 git clone ..."?
Also, "strace git clone ..." (or whatever strace equivalent exists
on windows, if any?).
