Flutter Device Daemon crashes after installing GIT 2.45.1

[yesilcimenahmet]

Hi,

After upgrading the GIT version to 2.45.1 on my Windows 10 machine yesterday, the Device List in Android Studio always remained stuck on Loading... Initially, I couldn't figure out why this was happening. I tried dozens of different methods and eventually ended up completely reformatting my computer and upgrading to Windows 11. I installed everything necessary, and everything was working fine. Then I downloaded and installed the GIT version, and when I started Android Studio, I received the error "Flutter Daemon terminated with exit code -1". Similarly, the Device List section broke again. I completely uninstalled GIT, and the issue was resolved. When the issue occurred, the Flutter doctor output did not report any problems.

PS:To be sure, I uninstalled GIT, and after confirming the issue was resolved, I reinstalled GIT, and the same issue occurred again.

Hi @yesilcimenahmet

when I started Android Studio, I received the error "Flutter Daemon terminated with exit code -1"

Do you only see this issue on Android Studio IDE? Does it re-occur each time opening Android Studio?

I updated Git on my machine to 2.45.1 but couldn't see this issue on Android Studio Hedgehog | 2023.1.1 Patch 1.

Hi, @huycozy

I uploaded short video, it shows everything about issue.

Thanks for the recorded video, it's so clear on how the issue appears.

Since the error is not verbose (only has Flutter device daemon #1), it's a bit hard to identify the issue. I found this answer on SO, could you try to see if it helps?

If it doesn't help, could you try running flutter doctor -v when the issue occurs? We need to see the error inside if the tool can print out. Please also check this for reference.
