Why does my Eclipse "count objects" before pushing upstream to GIT each time

Viewed 859

Every time I push a commit to upstream Git using Eclipse, it keeps counting thousands of objects. This happens even if I just commit a single line change. And it takes about 5-10 minutes.

Why does Eclipse do this? Is there some configuration option I have selected which makes this happen? How could I stop this from happening? This step is not happening for my colleagues who check-in to the same remote repository.

A good workaround for this issue is to select the "Run in background" button. Upon sending the push branch job to the background, the job will finish almost immediately in my experience. It appears that the process of writing the count to the screen is what is slowing down the performance of the job.
