Hi guys
I have set up my dev environment with VS2013 and everything works fine so far.
The only exception is GitHub. When I navigate to my local repository, GitHub displays the “Loading changes…” message - seemingly forever (I’ve let it run for over 10 hours).
Does anyone have an idea why this could be?
Cheers,
Michael
Very disappointing this post did not get a response. I experience the same issue. Tried reinstalling and completing wiping my ‘github for windows’ cache. But no dice. Looks like I will be sticking with the source .zip files
I’ve also had this happen on occasion.
It also regularly becomes unresponsive for minutes at time while sitting on 13-20% CPU usage and using up to 1GB of ram whenever I try and scroll in the repository info window (history, uncommitted files etc).
Sounds like its crunching away on something 
I have the very same issue. I’m just using console to status and pull git and everything is fine. I think their windows gui client is a pile of **** and it can’t handle such big projects.
QFT. Github for windows is an abomination. Use command line, or another git client.
Thanks a lot guys!
To anyone who’s looking for a free and fully featured alternative to the GitHub app I suggest taking a look at SourceTree (no need to install Git separately).
Cool, downloading it now
