I encountered this issue while working on a project that needs to be build in msys: When msys was getting installed (via `choco install msys2`), the job would later time out, no matter whether the actual build succeeded or failed. Like seemingly man other issues in here, I traced this back to a gpg-agent processes that was spawned during msys installation.

So if anyone else encounters this problem: A simple `taskkill -IM "gpg-agent.exe" -F` after msys installation will solve it.
