I ran this from a Gnulib source directory on my machine
(penguin.cs.ucla.edu):
$ git push
Counting objects: 10, done.
Delta compression using up to 4 threads.
Compressing objects: 100% (10/10), done.
Writing objects: 100% (10/10), 2.54 KiB | 0 bytes/s, done.

This took a very long time (multiple minutes) so eventually I gave up
and typed Control-C. Now I cannot commit anything. (I guess I learned my
lesson! :-) The symptoms are:
