[SOLVED] Git push takes forever

Issue

When I am trying to push to my remote git repository, but it is taking forever and nothing happens. I waited for so long, but push is never getting finished. My OS is Ubuntu 12.10. Thank you.

Solution

Try using the --verbose option to see what actually happens. Even if you did small changes, some internal things might cause git to push a lot more data.

Have a look at git gc. It cleans up your local repository and might speed up things, depending on you issue. Backup strongly advised.
