Heroku login success, but then freezes

I am using Git Bash on Windows.

I just verified my Heroku account, then I open git bash and type:

$ heroku login

bash responds:

heroku: Press any key to open up the browser to login or q to exit:
Opening browser to https://cli-auth.heroku.com/auth/browser/c31ddaf9-7a55-4daf-afad-a0500e924c26
heroku: Waiting for login...
Logging in... done
Logged in as [my mail address]

and then, I can type whatever I want, but it does not get and execute the command, behaving like a text editor. Then, when I click on the cross to close it, a warning message appears, telling that some processes are still going on.

How do I unlock the freezing and go on using Bash?

Solution

  • I solved it by hitting CTRL+C to break out and chose yes (type y).

    It turns out that the git bash terminal has the frequent problem of turning "frozen" after you enter a command. Whenever it happens, you should press CTRL+C
