    • Type: Bug
    • Resolution: Won't Fix
    • Priority: Major
    • Component/s: git-plugin
    • Environment:
      Jenkins 1.509.2 on JDK 1.7.0_25, master on Debian x64, slaves on Debian x64, x86, Windows x64, x86, and CentOS x64

      While exploring the Git 2.0 plugin beta version, I found that several of my jobs which were attempting to update from a large repository would hang the Jenkins job at the "Updating references" stage.

      The jobs which hung were all using jgit rather than the command line git. When I switched the jobs from jgit back to command line git, they worked as expected.
