SourceTree hangs when pushing to github

[Mike Ottinger]

Hi, I have SourceTree 1.7.4.1 on mac os 10.7.5 pointing to a github project. Every time I go to push my changes to it, SourceTree will hang. I changed the preferences to always output the git logs as each command is invoked to see which was the command it get's stuck on. The last command it runs is 'updating local tracking ref 'refs'remotes/origin/master'. I should mention, even if it hangs, the changes to make it to github. Any ideas on what might be going on here?

Thanks!

Hi Kieran, good news! I followed your link on troubleshooting performance problems, followed the advice to upgrade my system git. This solved all my problems. I should have thought earlier to do this :)

Glad it worked Mike!

Thanks for getting back to me. Could you open an issue on jira.atlassian.com and go through the following article reporting all of the required details in the article? https://confluence.atlassian.com/display/SOURCETREEKB/Troubleshooting+Performance+Problems+in+SourceTree

Thanks very much in advance

Fortunately this isn't an intermittent problem, it happens everytime, with small and large commits.

Hi Kieran, no hooks that I'm aware of. Checking github, there are service hooks available, none of which I have enabled. On the SourceTree side, I see nothing as well.

Do you know if it's a big commit? I recently had to do some very large commits and they did indeed take a long time.

Hey Mike,

Have you got any hooks set up? Any time this has ever happened to me it's because of hooks that can't execute when being run from SourceTree as it doesn't have access to the PATH, in which case they just fail with no output.

Cheers
