Push branch hangs and is stuck using Git extensions

Question

I am working with git extensions for vm, it was all fine till i changed my pc. In the new pc, the git cloning was taking lot of time, so what i did was

1. Copied the .git folder from my older pc
2. Loaded into the new c
3. opened in git extensions as a git repo
4. checked out the brnach i wanted to work on, and started working on it.

Pulling the changes worked, the problem came when i wanted to push changes, The push dialog is open for hours and still it cannot push the branch, the commit changes were hardly 5 files

One additional information is that When I Remote -> Manage Remote repositories -> Test connection it gave the error message "FATAL ERROR: Network error: Connection refused ".

Any suggestions ??

No, no no, you must never copy git folder, It can cause many problems when copying from one machine to another, on the same machine so no problem You're trying to make a push with other credentials or any data that is in the cache git.

My advice is to delete the remote and reloading, but haslo from git bash.

Remove remote git remote rm

Add remote git remote add
