As far as I can see from the strace log "tcl" is waiting for something to happen. I think "tcl" is waiting for the output from a git command. If the strace log does not give you any useful information, what do you suggest I do to track the bug down? Has git-gui got any logging build in that I can activate via an option e.g "-debug" or by setting an environment variable? If not can you suggest anything that would be useful? I installed 18.04 on my laptop, and the bug also showed up here. The machines have very little in common, except that they both have a SSD disk.
