I am trying to push commits to my github repository.

Running git push -ff while using HTTPS will give me: (I am using the -ff flag because I was fixing an invalid commit)

C:\Users\mooman\Dropbox\Project\Workspace\MilkBukkit [master]> git push -ff
Counting objects: 28390, done.
Delta compression using up to 8 threads.
Compressing objects: 100% (7515/7515), done.
Writing objects: 100% (28390/28390), 4.28 MiB, done.
Total 28390 (delta 13498), reused 28182 (delta 13449)
efrror: RPC failed; result=55, HTTP code = 0
atal: The remote end hung up unexpectedly
fatal: recursion detected in die handler
Everything up-to-date

I already ran git gc and git fsck, but the problem persists.

Using HTTP used to hang at around 10%, but I adjusted the buffer using git config --global http.postBuffer 524288000 where it now produce the results as shown above.

Attempted using SSH by running: git remote set-url origin https://github.com/mooman219/CowCode.git which results in:

Warning: Permanently added 'github.com,204.232.175.90' (RSA) to the list of known hosts.
Counting objects: 28390, done.
Delta compression using up to 8 threads.
Compressing objects: 100% (7515/7515), done.
Writing objects: 27% (28390/28390)

But it hangs after there.

I also tried port forwarding the git protocol port 9418 and disabling any firewall I have but the results are the same for both SSH and HTTP.

  • Any reason for the -ff flag? -f is a valid flag, but unless you already know you need to use it in this case, I wouldn't recommend it normally... I doubt that's the issue, just curious.

  • I need to use the -ff flag because my local branch is behind the remote one because I needed to fix an invalid commit.

  • Just checking that you did intend to force. -f should be sufficient, though -ff should accomplish the same. git merge has an -ff flag which is very different from git push's -f flag, hence my question & confusion.

GitHub appears to be down right now (you can check at https://status.github.com/ to see when they come back). Try again after they've finished fighting off whatever interstellar space bugs have stricken them.

According to http://status.github.com/ - They are "experiencing technical difficulties"
