3 [main] git-read-tree 2160 C:\cygwin\bin\git-read-tree.exe: ***
fatal error - could not load shell32, Win32 error 487
/usr/bin/git-clone: line 404: 2160 Hangup
That error is being reported by cygwin itself, not git. Do you, by
chance, have any one of these known dodgy apps installed, which could be
interfering with cygwin's ability to emulate fork()? I have never seen
git-clone fail in my experience (although I will admit that I haven't
cloned all that often).
