Git plugin causes supybot IRC connection to hang

[shiznix]

Enabling this plugin breaks supybot from being able to connect to an IRC server. Supybot reports itself as 'Connecting..', but does not connect until the Git plugin is disabled.

[mmueller]

Weird! What version of supybot are you running? Can you provide a stack trace if connection eventually times out? (Or can you interrupt it and provoke a stack trace?)

[shiznix]

Apologies for the late reply, here is the traceback.
Supybot version is 0.83.4.1
The connection does not timeout and must be interrupted with the resulting output:

Unfortunately, that supybot version is ancient. You should probably use a more recent snapshot from the source repository itself. I remember there being showstopper bugs in 0.83.4.1.

[shiznix]

Same problem with latest snapshot :(

Here is the traceback from that:
