Git Clone Works With CMD But Not With PowerShell

I can clone a particular repository with cmd.exe without problems but it fails with PowerShell.
Git Version: 2.27.0.windows.1
Required certificates were added to git install dir\mingw64\ssl\certs\ca-bundle.crt
PowerShell Error

Snippets from my .gitconfig
I already added the following properties after googling for the problem:
file:C:/users/doej1/.gitconfig core.longpaths=true
file:C:/users/doej1/.gitconfig core.autocrlf=true
file:C:/users/doej1/.gitconfig http.postbuffer=524288000
Why does it work with cmd.exe but not with PowerShell?

error: waitpid for fetch-pack failed: No child processes

I am getting this error when trying to clone any repository.
cant find much help on this from google.

Try running Git application as an Administrator (right click-> Run as Administrator), if its Windows.
It worked for me.
Run the Git Bash as admin and clone the directly.
I had the same issue and above solution worked for me.
This was a problem with the version of Git Installed on my system. I was using an older version of Git.
If anyone is facing the same issue, try upgrading your git installation to latest version. This solved my issue.

Git (Windows) - cannot create file on clone. Works as Superuser

I'm using Windows 8, 64bit - I recently installed Git to use it on this computer. However, it is not possible to clone any repository. It exits with the message:
$ git clone ssh://me#some.address.com/some/git/repository.git
Cloning into 'repository'...
error: Unable to create c:/Users/Danyel/workspace/repository/.git/HEAD
When I open cmd as Administrator and try the same command, it succeeds (cmd as normal user fails just like with Git Bash):
C:\Users\Danyel\workspace>git clone ssh://me#some.address.com/some/git/repository.git
Cloning into 'repository'...

I'm using this version of Git: Git-1.8.4-preview20130916
Any help or clues are welcome! I have checked for the permissions and have ownership in parent folders ("repository", ".git"). What else can it be??
Edit:
The GIT_TRACE option did not give any clue about it either:
$ GIT_TRACE=2 git clone ssh://me#some.address.com/some/git/repository.git
trace: built-in: git 'clone' 'ssh://me#some.address.com/some/git/repository.git'
Cloning into 'repository'...
error: Unable to create c:/Users/Danyel/Desktop/repository/.git/HEAD
As illustrated in this thread, that kind of error message only happens when one of the parent folders is a symlink.
Check if you can clone it in another path (C:\ or C:/Users/Danyel).
But I suspect that Desktop\workspace is a symlink, and as such, not very compatible with a cloned repo path (because that would un-symlink that path, which might not be compatible with other apps/process using that same path).
The only other instance of that issue is related to a path-length limit.

Heroku git pull error on mac

I have a Heroku project that has worked for months with no issues relating to git cloning, pushing, or pulling. Recently, I started getting this error when performing a git pull:
remote: Counting objects: 729, done.
remote: Compressing objects: 100% (308/308), done.
fatal: The remote end hung up unexpectedlyKiB | 76 KiB/s
fatal: early EOF
fatal: index-pack failed
There has been no significant changes to the code base. I am well under the storage limit on Heroku. A coworker of mine also cannot do a git clone of the heroku repository. It results in the same error. I have noticed that the early EOF line sometimes also includes this:
fatal: early EOFs: 24% (153/637), 196.00 KiB | 117 KiB/s
I am on a Mac OS X Mountain Lion Macbook Air, with the native server being utilized, and no other deep customizations that would impact the system.
Any ideas?
Well, I have heard several say that Heroku is not a reliable repository platform, so I am taking that to heart, and moved my repository on over to BitBucket. That solved my problem. From now on all other repositories I create will be hosted there, and still deployed on Heroku.
Here's a workaround:
"Edit local .git/config"
Add compression = 0 to the [core] section.
Other solution:
Run git config --add core.compression -1 from the terminal.

git flow installer fails to install shFlags on the Mac OS X 10.8.3

It looks like it may just be a temporary connection issue (though it's unusual that you were able to manually get the submodule but the script couldn't do it). The make-less installer appeared to work fine on my Mac OS 10.8.3 system. The make-less installer isn't doing much, you can run the steps yourself to install it-
git clone https://github.com/nvie/gitflow.git
cd gitflow
git submodule init
git submodule update
sudo make install
