I was really bothered by this but in the end I found that the slowness was due to conflict resolution when calling git branch. I can find the details if you want, but once I switched the default magit “git branch” call to something dumber it was fast on windows too.
Edit: found my PR. Give it a try, worked wonders for my magit on windows experience https://github.com/magit/magit/pull/4717 https://github.com/magit/magit/pull/4717
- dleslie 4y agoWow, I have been wanting a fix for this for years. Magit is unusable for me on windows, which is where most of my dev work is. Disappointing that your PR was closed without comment.
- School-Cotton 4y agoIt wasn’t closed without comment, there is a long and detailed comment explaining why the maintainers disagreed with the approach.
- dleslie 4y agoWhich was replied to. Then the reply was ignored.
- johanvts 4y agoIt would be interesting to know if this fix works for others. It would be a shame if a minor change like this is holding back a lot of windows users.
