2.50.0.windows.1 - git clone hangs intermittently on large repos

Worked in 2.49 and earlier. Failing in "2.50.0.windows.1"

$ git clone git@github.com:openjdk/jdk.git
Cloning into 'jdk'...
remote: Enumerating objects: 1582524, done.
remote: Counting objects: 100% (1275/1275), done.
remote: Compressing objects: 100% (585/585), done.
Receiving objects:   0% (1/1582524)

Temporary Workaround:

• tracked down a workaround that works with git 2.50.0.0 in the Git Issue thread:

git config --global core.sshCommand "C:/Windows/System32/OpenSSH/ssh.exe"
