Where are the patches for that? The following seems related: commit 10e1feebb454d99eb6644cc53b94255f40e6fe9c Author: Junio C Hamano Date: Wed May 14 12:06:35 2014 -0700 Revert "Merge branch 'fc/transport-helper-sync-error-fix'" This reverts commit d508e4a8e2391ae2596403b6478d01cf3d5f928f, reversing changes made to e42552135a2a396f37053a89f44952ea907870b2. The author of the original topic says he broke the upcoming 2.0 release with something that relates to "synchronization crash regression" while refusing to give further specifics, so this would unfortunately be the safest option for the upcoming release.
