So it looks like it might be the git_remote_push() that hangs.
Which is odd, given that the fetch above seems to have worked.
I guess I need to add timestamps... how long did this take?
I mean how long from start to the "update remote" and hang?
A second? Five? Thirty?

Can you run a traceroute to cloud.subsurface-divelog.org ?
What are your ping times?
If you access the server over https with a browser, is it responsive?

Now this is interesting. Because above this worked. But it does have a
relatively short timeout. I'm wondering... if that's the issue. A really
slow connection that times out sometimes and doesn't in others instances.

Now it's only saving to your local cache because it wasn't able to reach
the remote.

I wonder why that happens. Is this the first time you've successfully
saved in a while?

Yep, that's the correct behavior. Even when offline you still can work
with it.
