Is there a way to make git over http timeout?

Question

I\'m having a script running git clone/pull automatically (this is actually happening inside jenkins CI, but my question is more general). The remote git server is HTTPS bas

Answer 1

Additional to CAD bloke's answer:

Also

git config --global http.lowSpeedLimit 1000
git config --global http.lowSpeedTime 600

works fine.

The above example means the remote action will block when the speed kept below 1KB/s for 600 seconds(10min), the action will block.

Answer 2

You can try using

http.lowSpeedLimit, http.lowSpeedTime

If the HTTP transfer speed is less than http.lowSpeedLimit for longer than http.lowSpeedTime seconds, the transfer is aborted. Can be overridden by the GIT_HTTP_LOW_SPEED_LIMIT and GIT_HTTP_LOW_SPEED_TIME environment variables.

Answer 3

Add this to .gitconfig ...

[http]
lowSpeedLimit = 1000
lowSpeedTime = 20

lowSpeedLimit is bytes per second

I call it the Codeplex clause.
