I'm not sure what have been changed, but my Git installation started to be extremely slow on an average-sized repository. Others use Git with the same repository on similar machines.
Various commands working with local files are slow, e.g. status
& commit
. push
is fast.
Windows 10, Git 2.11.0 64 bit, high CPU consumption.
Typical problems and solutions already ruled out:
- Antivirus
- Network drive

time git status

aka MinGW):

Tracing performance with GIT_TRACE_PERFORMANCE=true git status
unfortunately has shown only a single atomic chunk:
performance: 32.583549907 s: git command: git status

This Stack Overflow post worked for me: Git Bash (mintty) is extremely slow on Windows 10 OS
Old question, I know, but I recently encountered the problem and found the answer - so thought I'd proliferate. Essentially, it was an issue with the AMD Radeon Graphics Driver slowing down mintty. Go to Device Manager, and disable AMD Radeon Graphics in favor of Intel Integrated Graphics. I've tried to find out why, but no luck so far.
