Iv'e tried this countless times today. It just doesn't finish. My
local dir is 6 revisions ahead of master so I prefer not to can my
local dir and re-clone.

Any suggestions? Can I figure out which file (243) is hanging it?

Are you sure it's hung and not just being slow? Is it still pegging at
least one CPU? Is it hitting the disk? Do you have any very large files,
especially ones that might push you into swapping?

No, there isn't a good way to see which object it is working on. You
would have to run it in a debugger (which I would consider anyway, then
you can see what it is actually doing while hung).
