git auto complete freezes terminal when password required

  • 772

When executing a command such as this

git pull origin BRANCH-1

and hitting tab (auto complete)

I get a password prompt like so:

git pull origin BRANCH-1Password:

Then the terminal freezes. The cursor blinks but it would not accept any input from the keyboard. I can't Ctrl+c or enter the password.

The only option is to close down the terminal which is sending me nuts.

What are my options?

    Ctrl+J seems to do the trick. It adds a LF allowing me to break the deadlock.
