"Error reading from the zlib stream"-Exception on Fetch/ Clone/ Push with custom transport

[WolfThomas]

I wrote a custom smarttransport according to a ssh sample. After fetch, pull or clone I get valid data but the method throws LibGit2Sharp Exception with "error reading from the zlib stream".

Transport with upload-pack read->write->read->write works, see dump below.

The error message: "error reading from the zlib stream" occurs in libgit2 within pack.c in method git_packfile_stream_read() after calling inflate(&obj->zstream, Z_SYNC_FLUSH); Error will be called if the result is !=Z_OK && !=Z_STREAM_END. After setting pack.compression=0 the zlib stream contains uncompressed data. But the error message is still there.

Were you able to correct the error? I have a Flare project in Azure I am cloning to a coworker's machine, and get: error reading from the zlib stream - could not authenticate.

Hello, I used the Microsoft Command Prompt (cmd) within C# Code on two different devices. I had to set the encoding of the string to solve my issue. Perhaps you have an encoding issue too.
