After installing SourceTree on Windows 10, and doing all (?) the necessary configuration, I can see my branch graph, but the branch list is not showing. The processing icon shows indefinitely.
I can do a successful pull, so I know it's hitting the server, and I know my credentials are successfully configured.
Any ideas what I'm missing?
I tried uninstalling and reinstalling several times. But I think the final solution came when I...
Did a full uninstall
Used Everything to find and remove all residual settings and preferences files (of which there were many).
Reinstalled.
Now it works. Hope this helps the next guy.

I have been trying to push my changed code to GitHub repo via VScode, it works on GitHub desktop but Source Control tab on Vscode is showing clock symbol forever. Then I do it via GitHub desktop again, but Source Control clock symbol never disappers till I close the application and open it again.
Does anybody have a solution as to why is it behaving like this?
I had the same problem. Somehow the tracked branch from vscode and the branch I checked out with git in the cli were different.
I could solve the issue by changing the branch in the UI of vscode by clicking on the branch and setting the correct one. I also restarted vscode.
Additionally: make sure you have excluded large folders with small files from git in your '.gitignore' file. E.g. This may happen when you haven't excluded your 'node_modules' folder from version control.
Dont you by chance have the authentication window opened in the background or another monitor?
Still in local repos folder they appear to be.
What I have: Ubuntu 18.04, attached bitbacket repos(they appear every run of SmartGit)
What I did: Added gpg key to SmartGit, successfully attached log/pass of GitHub to SmartGit. Same mail on SmartGit and GitHub.
Everything works just fine, until I close app and reboot Linux. Then they're gone.
I don't know what to do to solve this problem, I've tried to google it, but nothing any helpful.
SmartGit is somewhat sensitive to ungraceful shutdowns which typically occur when rebooting your machine without having exited SmartGit before. To solve this, readd the repository to SmartGit's known repositories list using Repository|Add or Create, then exit SmartGit using Repository|Exit and restart.
Hello everybody I have this "big" and frustrating problem,
I have forked a project from git and as usual it is available in my account in GitHub. I then set up a project in eclipse selecting from an existing URI. All is ok, if I work with my own version of the project.
What I want to do is, because the project is changing and growing day by day, to have an updated copy from the original project and, every time I want to download any change I would like that the download is from the original project.
At the moment the only way (with EXTREMELY big problems) I found is using "Team > Fetch from Upstream" the changing the link to the repos using the "config" button. Obviously this lead to conflicts and annoying problems. I am sure that this is not the correct way to handle a forked repos and I need help.
I am using windows 7 and eclipse with egit, if I press Windows-R and then cmd it don't recognize the command "git" so I can't use console commands.
Any help?
With windows 7, you can install git to your machine and use console command as normal. (Link to download)
See this link to configure git to sync your fork with the original repo.
Hope this can help.
I have tried logging out and in, changing password and non work.
I also downloaded the project as zip and put it in the folder. But I can't 'find' it on github client for windows and I cannot clone it then it tells me the project already exist. But I can't open the repository on github for windows. I have deleted Github for windows and re-installed it. I've removed the SSH on github.com so it would make new keys. None work. Any suggestions?
I am getting this error:
http://snag.gy/eHlqj.jpg
So no specific reason at all but;
It was almost 5 months that I was part of this private project. 5 of us are committing almost every day for the past 5 months. Only I had this problem so far.
What helped:
Uninstall github
use something like ccleaner to clean your pc and registry
remove %AppData%\GitHub manually
remove %LocalAppData%\GitHub manually
restart
go to www.github.com in your account and remove the SSH key's.
install github client and login
done, it should work now
It seems that this is a problem of web credentials, have you tried with another browser? or to clear the cache of Chrome?
There is a panel on the right that is supposed to show current content of README.MD. However, I noticed that after changing the content of REAMDE.MD is hasn't updated the text in the panel. Is there a way to forcefully refresh it?
The version of GitHub for Windows I have is 1.0.41.2 (fd3fd236ac85e622194e88f248576b9fe25d28d4)
Yeah, sorry about that. It's a bug and we're working on it. It's currently cached for 30 minutes and sometimes it doesn't expire when it should.
The only way to force a refresh currently is to either delete the entire folder at %LocalAppData%\GitHub\BlobCache.api.github.com or to locate the file in that folder that holds the README content (by looking for keywords that would appear in the README for example) and deleting that.
After a quick search in the \AppData\Local\GitHub folder I found that the old value from README.MD is stored in one of the files in the BlobCache.api.github.com. Deleting the whole folder and restarting the app solved the issue.
Still wondering if there is a proper way for doing that from UI? Shouldn't it happen automatically anyway?
This came from GitHub staff. It tells you how to clear the cache.

There's a known bug where we cache the 'NO README' view if you add a README after adding the repository to GitHub for Windows.
If you'd like to try to get the README to show up, you can delete the cache:
Here are the steps you will need to follow to delete the cache:
Close GitHub for Windows
Open the Git Shell
Run 'github —delete-cache' to clear our the GitHub for Windows cache
Restart GitHub for Windows — you will need to log in and add your repositories again
