VC integration in emacs has stopped working for me in the past few
days. Using emacs debugger I found the last function call was to
call-process which never returns.
I can reproduce this by evaluating in Lisp Interaction mode (using ^J)
(call-process "pwd" nil t)
I would expect to see the PWD and exit code but instead it just hangs
until I Quit it (^G)
I am using GNU Emacs 24.3.1 and confirmed cygwin and all packages up
to date. (cygwin DLL 1.7.31)
I can't reproduce this. I tested both emacs-X11 and emacs-w32, on both
32-bit Cygwin and 64-bit Cygwin. Can you think of anything on your
system that has changed in the last few days? And have you tried
starting emacs with the '-Q' option to rule out a problem in your
initialization files?
You should also attach cygcheck output, as suggested at
http://cygwin.com/problems.html.
