Hello,

I am a new GitPython user and I would like to display a progress bar when cloning locally a large GitHub repository. To begin with, I have created a RemoteProgress based class and I have plugged it in the clone_from() function :

from git import Repo
from git.remote import RemoteProgress

class Progress(RemoteProgress):
    def update(self, *args):
        print(self._cur_line)

Repo.clone_from(github_url,local_path,progress=Progress())

When I run it, I have well the progress from 0 to 100% of remote: Counting objects: and remote: Compressing objects: steps (which are super fast) but after that, nothing more : the terminal keep freezed until the end of the download.

How to catch the progress of the download itself ?

Thank you in advance!
