i open sourcetree and try to create a local repository: the following commands are shown:

git -c color.branch=false -c color.diff=false -c color.status=false -c diff.mnemonicprefix=false -c core.quotepath=false init /Users/test/test 

but the dialog keeps hanging forever and no repository is created
