This can result in hanging IDE, for example when the network cable is pulled during a HTTP clone operation. We might want to have a general timeout setting somewhere in the Git Preferences or we could decide to add a field in the wizard which is pre-filled with a useful default. Note that specifically for HTTP, there is JGit change http://egit.eclipse.org/r/#change,1276 describing a problem with the HTTP transport class.
It turned out we have this problem in all "remote" operations. Code review at http://egit.eclipse.org/r/#change,1682
Fixed with ed1d5bcd6fec50d583881bdc702437d52de91302.
