Windows git: Fatal: TaskCanceledException detected

I recently updated my git (2.7.4.windows.1). Since then pulling from github produces output as follows:

$ git pull --rebase Fatal: TaskCanceledException encountered. Current branch ABC-123_Something is up to date.

Fatal: TaskCanceledException encountered. appears after a boring 20 seconds, and then everything works fine. I did not find anything on the net and I would like to avoid spending 20 seconds again and again.

Credential help handling has changed from the latest version I used. System gitconfig (as TortoiseGit calls it) contains a section:

 [credential] helper = manager

I think this is from previous versions. I deleted it, and from now on, there was no delay or error message. Victory!: -)

I just ran into the same problem, and if it is omitted in the comments on the accepted answer, the fix is:

 git config --global credential.helper wincred
