Description

Reproduction steps
  • Get a repo with a size of >3GB, or even 800MB in our case yesterday was already enough (including .git-folder)
  • Implement a fetch on that repo
  • See how long it is taking any in some cases how it fails

Alternative way:

  1. Get the S5Updater.
  2. Extract it into an empty folder.
  3. Start it (It will ask you if you really want to use it).
  4. Set a path for the Gold-Folder (empty).
  5. Remove the checkmark of "easy mode" or "einfacher Modus" at the bottom.
  6. Press "Update MP Maps" (third button on the left.
  7. Optional: check the "show log" if you wanna see our custom output with this error.
  8. Read what the log is telling you.
  9. Afterwards you can delete it and the folder you created for the gold-path again.

Content of the full log as file
message(1).txt

Expected behavior

Going through and not failing after some minutes (5+ minutes)

For Reference: The S5Updater is our tool where we are using Libgit2sharp to get the content we need for our Systems. There you can see that.

It is also not happening for everyone. It could be related to the speed of the internet connection. The worse the internet is, the more likely you/we are getting a failure.

Research direction

Start with the fetch path named in the report: LibGit2Sharp.Commands.Fetch, Core.Proxy.git_remote_fetch, and Core.Ensure, then reproduce against the Balancing-Stuff repository using the attached log. Done means large-repository fetches complete without the reported "could not decrypt tls message" failure.
