Git clone / pull continually freezing at "Store key in cache?"
I had this problem when cloning a repo on Windows 10 too.
I got around it by using the Putty GUI to SSH to the server in question (in your case: bitbucket.org) then clicked 'Yes' when the prompt asks if you want to save the server key to the cache. Running the clone command again then worked for me!
- Open Putty
- Type in the Host Name (like
bitbucket.org) - Click Open
- Click yes in the popup to cache the host key
- Close Putty
I managed to get it working by running plink directly, after pageant is running use the plink command directly - plink.exe -agent -v git@github.com then after this git works without hanging.
