Same problem here.
+1
I think it may have to do with wbond.net being down, currently.
@Anorov is right. wbond.net is down and so repository loading fails.
Maybe a mirror solution would be cool.
same here
@ahmedelgabri It seems in your case git is hanging. Perhaps set the ignore_vcs_packages
setting to true?
@Anorov @saada @asaaki @lucafregoso My site is back up now.
@wbond It was working normally & git is working cause I use it all the time.
update: I have added ignore_vcs_packages
& it's working now but I don't know why it stopped to work suddenly?
@ahmedelgabri Could be a number of things. Does git prompt you for a password if you run it from the command line when inside of the package folder for the package you checked out with git?
@wbond I don't know exactly which package is causing this problem but I opened package control settings & I found three repos under "repositories", I removed them through Package control & reverted back ignore_vcs_packages
to false & it's still not working.
@wbond confirmed! :thumbsup:
What do you think about the failover/mirror idea?
@asaaki Doubtful to happen unless I start monetizing this somehow so I have real time to work on it and pay for infrastrcture.
Or volunteers? I love the approach of Linux distributions and their repositories which are mirrored to dozens of servers around the globe.
And if I'm right it's just about mirroring this json: https://sublime.wbond.net/repositories.json (Okay, and some subsequent files referenced here.)
@asaaki It is certainly possible, but presents a whole lot of new things to solve. Package signing, SSL cert trust network, distributed usage statistics and API crawling, automated failover, load distribution. Those are things that would need to be present to just be able to mirror things to random hosts.
There would be less technical complexity if I made my infrastructure more robust, but that is something that would mostly be a cost issue since I would need the time and money to do it.
Currently I've only found one person willing to even spend some time reviewing packages – it could just be that reviewing packages is not glamorous.
Either way, not sure it is best use of my time to chase those goals considering I've had 99.9% uptime over the past year. However, if you are passionate about it and have the time and resources to devote to making something like this happen, I and the Sublime Text community would surely appreciate a more robust hosting infrastructure.

I would be willing to put in some time reviewing packages, but I don't think I have the Python skills be any use doing it. Is python knowledge required?

Is wbond.net down again?
@katbella5 i was just about to note this
@zchrykng No, no python knowledge is required at all. http://wbond.net/sublime_packages/package_control/reviewing
@katbella5 @trevor Back again.
I think this is resolved.
hello my problem is also the same way and i can't install no more packages using package control. I am using windows 7 64 bit. and also i am unable to use livereload in sublime text as i got the error saying"Could not connect to LiveReload server. Please make sure that a compatible LiveReload server is running. (We recommand guard-livereload, until LiveReload 2 comes to your platform.) please help me.. regards, suku"
Since yesterday I can't install any new packages & it's stuck at "Loading repositories[ =]"
here is my console output with the debug option, I tried removing packages but nothing changed & I reverted back to the system Git binary but also nothing changed. And I haven't installed any new packages.
