Actually I think CCW is not the issue but leiningen. If I do this: lein new foo cd foo lein repl
Now leiningen hangs. If I run lein repl outside of a project folder, it works. I'm not sure if this is really a problem with leiningen, or I just did something wrong at some point, so I'm a bit hesitant to submit a bug report.
