So sad. After that build, I cherry-picked the commit on top of shears/pu (which is Git for Windows' ever-green branch that continuously rebases Git for Windows' `master` onto git.git's `pu`), and the build seems to hang again: https://dev.azure.com/git-for-windows/git/_build/results?buildId=31291 I kicked off another build with Max' patch reverted, and my `test-tool genzeros` patch applied on top: https://dev.azure.com/git-for-windows/git/_build/results?buildId=31293 I won't be able to wait for its outcome before logging off for the night (read: feel free to check its progress yourself, if the linux-clang job is still running 10 minutes after I send this mail, it is probably safe to assume that it hangs, otherwise it is fine), but I am fairly certain that it will work around the issue again, as it did exactly that before in several tests (and also in v2.21.0-rc1.windows.1).
