git push hangs for no apparent reason

Out of the blue, I got a hang when I did a push to a git repo.  I’ve no idea what caused it because it had never happened before and, of course, this time I was in a hurry.

The good news: I found the solution. Thanks to Pedro Liska who hit the same problem and found a solution:  git push hangs when windows git client pushes to TeamFoundation Git Server

The most recent version of git, as I write this, is 2.5. So, what are you waiting for? Go install it: git Downloads
