I'm building a Go-Agent that's deployable via chef to AWS (to give you some context) Part of that is installing Msysgit and as I look it's been 1 hour and 3 mins since it's started trying to install it. I fF however you go onto the box and type cinst msysgit it installs with no problems.

Any ideas on what's causing it to hang?

It could be several reasons, including the particular installer wanting to be interactive. If this happens only with particular packages, I would move towards that being the issue. But I've heard of other things that seem to get no priority when run as a background job.

Apologies! I meant to post this but kinda forgot about this.

It was fixed by installing the version below it, suddenly the problem went away; specifically we moved from version '1.9.5.20150114' to '1.9.5' and it installed.

I'm still not sure what cause it but that was the fix.
