Git clone stalls at a read(3, ...) saw using strace

Hi, all!

    Please CC me as I'm not subscribed.

    Using  GIT 1.4.1, I tried to get this repository:

# git clone git://source.mvista.com/git/linux-davinci-2.6.git

    After some time the download stalled completely. I used ps and
saw two git processes.

    Using strace, I saw that the first one, "git clone", was waiting
with waitpid()
for its child termination.
    Its child, "git pack --all -k", was stalled at a "read(3, ...)"

    I went to /proc and saw that fd 3 was a pipe. Anyone know why this
is happening?

    I found an issue somewhat related in google (not sure that is the
same problem):

    It stalled at the first 60 Mb transfered. After CTRL+C it deletes
and I have to start again from scratch.

Thank you for the great alternative to bitkeeper and CVS,
