Getting latest changesets stuck on "Saving changesets" status

Continua Version: 1.8.1.529

Continua get stuck at "Saving changesets" when retrieving changes from a TFS Git repository. When this occurs on one repository, all subsequent checks on other repositories also become stuck at the "Saving changesets" status.

This also blocks all builds. Builds are added to the queue, but never start.

My first suggestion would be to update to the latest 1.8.1.x build of Continua CI, as the build you are using is pretty old and there have been a lot of fixes for git since .529

If that doesn’t resolve this issue, then you will need to enable debug logging - https://wiki.finalbuilder.com/display/continua/Debug+Logging - and once the issue occurs again, stop the service and then send us the debug log. Be sure to turn off debug logging when done, as it does add some overhead to the server.

FWIW, in our experience, when git gets stuck like that, it’s usually due to it prompting for credentials.
