I'm attempting to push a commit ('master') to a remote ('origin/master'). The commit contains changes to 5 python scripts, each under 1000 lines of code. When I push, it goes very slowly as if it were pushing a very large file, then eventually times out when the status bar is at about 90%.
Is there a way to check what information is getting pushed that's so cumbersome, or what's causing it to time out?
EDIT: When I run git diff, it only shows 5 python scripts as being modified. But when I push, it says "Compressing objects: (170/170)". There are some very large files in my local repo but they are listed in the .gitignore.
