GIT commits to repository but DW hangs and needs to be force restarted

I am new to using Git with DW.

On a MacBook Pro when I use Git it does commits to the repository but DW hangs and needs to be force restarted every time.
What can I do about this?
I am using MacBook Pro, GIT and DW2021

    This has been driving me nuts for ages. I noticed that when it hangs and you swap quickly between apps the Git Repository window reappears. This has led me to think it might be a timeout issue.

     

    So my workaround when pushing to the repository, is to move the mouse quickly around the screen until the push is finished. No more timeouts.  🙂

     

    Please let me know if this ridicules workaround works for anyone else?

    Hi @Suthern_Buckeye, @RTMF,

     

    We hope you are continuing to stay well and healthy. We have resolved this behavior with Dreamweaver 21.4 update, please let us know if you are still facing this issue with Dw 21.4 on your machine.

     

    Have a pleasant day!

     

    Regards,

        For as dumb as your solution sounds 🤣, in my using it since you posted this I've not had things crash when working with the Git Respository.

         

        Thanks for sharing! Hopefully at some point Adobe will fix for real, but I'm not sure I will ever notice now.

        This actually worked for me as well! Moving the mouse while the files uploads stops the timeout. Thanks @Bobby_Solo

        Which Mac OS  -- Mojave, Catalina, Big Sur or Monterey (version #)?

         

        Have you tried restoring preferences?

        Monterey 12.0.1

        I havent tried restoring preferences yet. I was going to do that as a last resort.

        I have done this

        • Enable related files > disable
        • Linting > disable
        • Code hints > disable
        • In app updates > turn off
