When I try doing 'git clone https://code.qt.io/cgit/qt/qtbase.git' it hangs indefinitely with 100% cpu usage on one core. Specifically, the process 'git-remote-https origin https://code.qt.io/cgit/qt/qtbase.git'. This happens for all qt repos, couldn't reproduce elsewhere (e.g. github). Can someone reproduce this?
=dev-vcs/git-2.3.9 is not even in portage anymore. The latest stable version is =dev-vcs/git-2.7.3-r1, the oldest available (unstable) version is =dev-vcs/git-2.4.11 Please test with one of the available versions and only re-open this bug if one of these versions fail as well.
Sorry, meant 2.9.3
Well, it's quite slow here but there's definitely activity in the repo's target directory. I see the .git/objects directory getting constantly filled with content. Have you tried letting it sit for let's say a couple of hours? ;)
You're right, something seems to be happening, but it shouldn't be this slow, right? And it should display some progress updates? Syncing the same repository from github completes in a matter of seconds. $ time git clone https://github.com/qt/qtbase Cloning into 'qtbase'... remote: Counting objects: 426214, done. remote: Compressing objects: 100% (309/309), done. remote: Total 426214 (delta 94), reused 0 (delta 0), pack-reused 425905 Receiving objects: 100% (426214/426214), 262.99 MiB | 24.45 MiB/s, done.

I went to the shopping mall and after I've returned the clone was finished. So I'd say this is an error with qt's git service.
