There was a problem hiding this comment.
The reason this was solved with threads on windows is that the same thing could happen with p.stdout and p.stderr at the same time, in which case the only solution is to read from both simultaneously (with separate threads).
However, the threads caused issues on Linux so I made it windows only in: b8c24a7. I suspect the same issue is also behind these crashes: #591

closes #635
Adds a
--progressflag to thegit clonecommand, which will spit out the information / progress of the cloning operation.This implementation will run a
whileloop that reads the available bytes as they come in and spits them out to theSys.stdout, and will continue until it gets anEOFerror (git clone operation finished), which then it will read all of the bytes + exit code and return it as usual.
