Git Extensions "function not implemented" - windows

I'm trying to use Git Extensions on a new Windows 7 machine. I have done that many times before but never hit this particular issue.
Git Bash is working, I successfully cloned a repository.
But going to Git Extensions, opening the repo, and doing a pull gives me the following error message:
"C:\Program Files (x86)\Git\bin\git.exe" pull --progress "origin"
error: cannot spawn git: Function not implemented
Done
Press Enter or Esc to close console...
My setup is very ordinary. The Git Extensions startup checks all pass. (This is similar but not the same problem as the common invalid path issue.)
Do you have any idea what causes this problem?

The new releases, Git for Windows 2.16.1(3) and Git for Windows 2.16.1(4), fix this regression:
2.16.1(3) Bug Fixes
When http.sslBackend is not configured (e.g. in portable Git or MinGit), fetch/push operations no longer crash.
On Windows 7 and older, Git for Windows v2.16.1(2) was no longer able to spawn any processes (e.g. during fetch/clone). This regression has been fixed.
The Perl upgrade in v2.16.1(2) broke git send-email; This has been fixed by updating the Net-SSLeay Perl module.
The mentioned regression in the second bullet point is exactly the error this question is about.
Unfortunately, there was one missing issue about spawning processes which was then fixed in the subsequent fourth release:
2.16.1(4) Bug Fixes
When called from TortoiseGit, git.exe can now spawn processes again.
Note that the download on https://git-scm.com/download/win might not have been update yet, so you need to download it from gitforwindows.org or directly from the release page on GitHub.
Afterwards, you can verify that you indeed running the new version using git --version which should report git version 2.16.1.windows.4.

Per Philippe and Jake - bug is filed against GIT 2.16.2, and workaround is to go back to prior version.
https://github.com/git-for-windows/git/releases/tag/v2.16.1.windows.1

Running an update on my machine to Git for Windows v2.21.0- just a slightly updated version fixed the issue with my Windows 7 installation at work.

Git Bash -Segmentation Fault Problem (Windows)

Indeed I have same issue which is mentioned here "Why does bash (from git installation) give me segmentation fault suddenly?
"
My git was working properly. But I need to regenerate keygen value and I got segmentation fault. I remoted git and installed the latest version of git (2.19.0-64-bit). I tried with git-bash from search, bash.exe from bin folder , git.exe from bin folder , git-bash.exe under Git Folder and git-cmd.exe under Git folder. The results are same.
After I read the link I shared above , I checked the windows updates as well. But there is no update.
Is there any idea ? Thanks in advance
2.9 is not the latest, one: 2.19 is.
Try (for testing) and uncompress the latest Git for Windows portable archive PortableGit-2.19.0-64-bit.7z.exe anywhere you want.
Then setup a simplified path in a CMD session.
set PATH=C:\WINDOWS\system32;C:\WINDOWS;C:\WINDOWS\System32\Wbem
set GIT_HOME=C:\Path\to\Git
set PATH=%GIT_HOME%;%GIT_HOME%\bin;%GIT_HOME%\usr\bin;%GIT_HOME%\mingw64\bin;%PATH%
(Add any other path you would need)
Try then to regenerate your SSH key.
Also, make sure this is not related to an AV (Anti-Virus) as in issue 1832 or issue 1291.
My company also uses TrendMicro.
Can confirm that making an exception for /Git/usr/bin/bash.exe works as well.
For me it was C:\Program Files\Git\usr\bin, but adding it to the list of trusted programs did indeed fix the issue
I faced the same problem yesterday. Using git-bash, all my commands (i.e. mvn, javac, git pull) were giving error "Segmentation fault". This was because an update of my machine anti-virus which blocks proper access to my local login profile (sambit-swain#TERMINAL) After un-installing it, everything went back to normal.
So, the problem is not with GIT BASH or any other configuration. I should have checked the access levels (including SSH keys) to programs.

remote-https is not a git command when cloning repo

On a Windows (version 10) machine, with the latest git client at the time of writing (2.18.0.windows.1), cloning repositories using HTTPS fails with error:
git: 'remote-https' is not a git command.
After a bit of research it turns out that git comes with several remote-<command> utilities, with remote-https being one of them. The error message therefore seems to tell us that `remote-https is not installed on the machine.
After a bit more research, it seems that similar problems for other developers were solved by installing curl. The machine we're dealing with does have curl (7.46.0) installed as well.
We tried reinstalling the git client a couple of times entirely from git-scm.com as well as gitforwindows.org, both resulting in the same error.
Any help or pointer to get this fixed is highly appreciated.
I just fixed the error in my build env. hope my solution is useful to you.
my env: Windows10+Jenkins+git
git version 2.18.
I just reinstall the git into windows, with a different selection during the installation:"MINTTY". after reinstall, I found the remote-https under my git install directory.
also, you need to set the jenkins env. make sure that the new git path which was included in the Jenkins env configure. if you "echo %Path%", and you can find the new git path which included the remote-https, then you are fine.

Error with git pull and git push [duplicate]

I'm using Git (and GitHub) on a daily basis and everything has been working fine and all of a sudden, I can no longer communicate with my remote GitHub repository through my Git commands. When I try to "Git pull", it gives the following error:
fatal: unable to access 'https://github.com/snahrvar/eatibl.git/':
error:1407742E:SSL routines:SSL23_GET_SERVER_HELLO:tlsv1 alert
protocol version
So, I tested across multiple repositories, and I get the same errors on my computer. I had someone else interact with those same repositories, and it works fine for them. Prior to this error, I did an "npm install sharp" on a project and that ended up failing, and I suspect this may have messed with some SSL setting, but that's a wild guess!
Any general thoughts or guidance would be much appreciated!
If it's helpful at all, here is my environment:
Git version: 1.9.4.msysgit.2
Windows version: Windows 8.1
Updating TortoiseGit and GCM didn't help me, but updating Git itself did, as per #Frederic's advice in comments.
https://git-scm.com/download/win
To make sure the new version of Git installs properly and doesn't conflict with previous installations (it might, if you used TortoiseGit's, because it would use different folders and mess with PATH variable), remove the existing Git installation before installing the updated Git. Might also need to install with administrator rights.
You're likely running into an incompatibility with GitHub's deprecation of weak SSL encryption protocols:
Weak cryptographic standards removal notice
The solution will vary, but for Windows you likely need to upgrade the Git credential manager to 1.14.0
https://github.com/Microsoft/Git-Credential-Manager-for-Windows/releases/tag/v1.14.0
If you are using Android Studio or IntelliJ IDEA, updating Git to the latest version and changing the path to point to the new version solve the problem for me.
Using TortoiseGit, I did all of the other fixes/updates given for this and still no success. I found this: Can't git push/pull/fetch suddenly
My TortoiseGit settings for Git for Windows Git.exe path was pointing to C:\Program Files (x86)\Git\bin. I changed it to C:\Program Files\Git\bin and now it's working again.
This is what worked for me.
Install the latest version of Git from here: https://git-scm.com/download/win
In TortoiseGit, go to menu Settings → General → Git.exe Path - change it from 32-bit to 64-bit path:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Git\bin → C:\Program Files\Git\bin
Updating Git was not enough in my situation. After debugging for several hours, this was my fix:
C:\wamp64\www\maandlastenmanager> git config http.sslVersion
tslv1.0
C:\wamp64\www\maandlastenmanager> git config http.sslVersion tlsv1.2
C:\wamp64\www\maandlastenmanager> git config http.sslVersion
tslv1.2
I had this same problem while pulling code from GitHub on my Visual Studio Code terminal. I found the advice in the previous answers useful and hacked a solution together following the steps below:
I updated Git.
I updated Git Credential Manager for Windows.
Made some changes to the registry.
Updated my Visual Studio Code installation to the latest version.
Changed my Windows path for Git from C:\Program Files (x86)\Git\bin. to C:\Program Files\Git\bin.
This repository was quite useful.
I hope this helps someone.
TL;DR: git config --system http.sslbackend schannel and switch off HTTPS checks for github.com in your antivirus software
I'm using the Git command line on Windows 8 x64. In addition, my antivirus software checks HTTPS traffic by default. Like other people in answering this question, I use GitHub almost daily.
Updating Git - didn't help - because I used OpenSSL (see below)
Updating credential manager - didn't help
Then I started playing with switching the SSL backend:
git config --system http.sslbackend openssl
----------------vs------------------
git config --system http.sslbackend schannel
and the antivirus software checks for SSL traffic:
OpenSSL, HTTPS checks ON: error:0407006A:rsa routines:RSA_padding_check_PKCS1_type_1:block type is not 01
OpenSSL, HTTPS checks OFF: SSL certificate problem: unable to get local issuer certificate
SecureChannel, HTTPS checks ON: schannel: next InitializeSecurityContext failed: Unknown error (0x80092012) - The revocation function was unable to check revocation for the certificate.
SecureChannel, HTTPS checks OFF: worked fine
P.S.: Instead of commandline, you can just reinstall the latest Git, selecting "Use native Windows SSL validation library".
P.P.S.: The case (3) seems to be a bug in the schannel library, because the MITM certificate my antivirus software uses is whitelisted on my machine.
On macOS, you can install the latest git via Homebrew.
Same for me with Git 1.9.5.msysgit.1 too. I tried to install https://github.com/Microsoft/Git-Credential-Manager-for-Windows/releases/tag/v1.14.0, but no change.
Actually, nothing happen after installation; maybe I'm doing something wrong? (That may not help for the initial question, but for other people, yes!)
Yeah, I encountered the same issue on a pull request today and the solution was to simply update Git by downloading the latest (2.16.2) 64-bit version of Git for Windows. It was released 5 days ago, on 2018-02-20.
The comment by #andw worked for me:
Update Git version 1.9.5 to 2.15.1 using these steps:
In sourceTree, go to menu Tools → Options → Git → Use Embedded Git.
A quick solution would be git config --global http.sslVerify true, but it is not recommended as it defeats the purpose using SSL.
A second and better way is to use ssh keys rather than an SSL URL.
Steps to generate SSH keys
o Run the following command in a Git terminal (Git Bash): ssh-keygen
After running the command, the following message will appear:
Generating public/private RSA key pair.
Enter file in which to save the key (/h//.ssh/id_rsa):
Give the path for the key to be stored in, for example, enter the file in which to save the key (/h//.ssh/id_rsa): C:\Users\Public\my-new-ssh-key
Then give the passphrase for that key (any password of minimum 8 characters)
• Next run the following command: eval “$(ssh-agent –s)”
• Run the following command: ssh-add C:/Users/Public/my-new-ssh-key Note: use forward slash in the path to the newly created SSH key.
After that, add the contents of the file my-new-ssh-key.pub and add it in the text area for Add public key (Bitbucket, GitHub, etc.)
While connecting to a remote repository to fetch, pull, push, etc., I had the same error:
fatal: unable to access 'https://github.com/repository.git/': error:1
407742E:SSL routines:SSL23_GET_SERVER_HELLO:tlsv1 alert protocol version
I just reinstalled Git 64-bit in place of 32-bit and that fixed the issue.
After installation, verify the Git path in environment variables. It should be:
C:\Program Files\Git\bin\git.exe
This is an issue with IntelliJ and RubyMine. GitHub must have disabled SSL (PCI compliance maybe?) in favor of TLS. If you open Settings in IntelliJ or RubyMine and navigate to Version Control > Git, you'll see it's using a git.exe installed under the application's path. You should download the most current version of Git and change the path in your VCS settings to point to that, e.g. C:\Program Files\Git\bin\git.exe if you install it on Windows. Works like a charm after that.
Sometimes, this is caused by outdated msysgit which is using old ssl and not maintained any more, you can install latest git for windows, and point the git.exe path in tortoise setting to it, then this problem gone.
Git version upgrade did the trick for me. I had the version 1.9.5 and so and I upgraded to 2.21.0 on windows. Also upgrading is very easy. We don't need to uninstall the older version. Download the latest Git installer and just keep on pressing next using default options and the version will be changed to new version and all the old settings will still be working like ssh keys etc. We don't need to generate the keys again and put on github or any other repository.
Earlier my https protocol cloning was not working and giving error
fatal: unable to access 'https://github.com/tensorflow/models/':
error:1407742E: SSL routines:SSL23_GET_SERVER_HELLO:tlsv1 alert
protocol version
Once I downloaded new version and ran the same clone command it worked without any issues.
I also came across to this problem recently
What worked for me was to revert an automatic update of git
Encountered a similar error.
On windows, Updated git on windows to the latest version.
That fixed the problem.

Git reports changed files on Windows 8

I have been struggling with this git problem.
The problem is that when I do a fresh clone from GitHub, git reports that some files has changed although I have not touched them.
Often this happens when I switch branches as well. If I go from an unmodified master to another branch and back to master, it says files has been changed in master.
I have been reading about line endings and tried just about everything in that category, but nothing seems to help.
The repository is https://github.com/seesharper/LightInject is case someone would like to try and see if they have the same problem.
A friend of mine had the exact same problem with the same repository on his Windows 8 machine. Then he tried it on Windows 7 and the problem went away.
Does anybody know of any issues with using git on windows 8.
I have also tried this on another Windows 8 machine and it has the same problem.
I've dealt with this issue in the past - keep in mind that most git installations run on non-windows servers. There's a distinct possibility that what Windows is seeing is actually something where the "filemode" of the file is different than what Linux expects, therefore it sees the file as changed.
Poking around on the internet, there may be a way to fix the filemode issue - but nothing on google is jogging my memory at the moment. I skimmed over this, maybe something in it will help?
https://groups.google.com/a/chromium.org/forum/#!topic/chromium-dev/0EdNev3NNsw
I can't promise the above has a silver bullet for you, but it seems like there's good discussion about how Windows filemode messes up git indexes, sometimes.
I experienced the same issue with Windows 7. This is something I did to resolve (you might try):
git clone git#github.com:seesharper/LightInject.git
cd LightInject
git status
git checkout -f -b mine HEAD~
git status
git checkout master
git status
git branch -D mine

Git push halts on “Writing Objects: 100%” on Windows 7

When I try to push new file into Git repository, it doesn't finish, on screen is my workflow:
I tried:
TortoiseGit 1.8.1.0 (git version 1.8.0.msysgit.0 (C:\Program
Files\Git\bin))
Eclipse EGit 2.1.0
Command line
without any success. I read this question, but it's quite old (1.5 year), and do not help (I installed git 1.7.4), and was the same. I new in Git, please tell me what am I doing wrong or how to solve it? What do you suggest as a Git client for Windows 7 (32)? (Best if it will support command line).
Pushing over the Git-protocol is still broken in Git for Windows. So if that's what you're attempting, check if you can push over another protocol instead.
I had this problem today. I pulled and then tried to push to the remote, and it got to 100% writing objects and just stayed there. It didn't request the repo password, nothing.
The solution was related to my .gitconfig file. I had to redo the settings in this file.
I think in mucking around with my git repository (and admittedly learning how git works by breaking it) I had inadvertently removed this file.
