"git push origin master" freezes

git, github

Solution

Thanks for your comments.The issue was that my firewall was blocking the SSH connections.

Problem

I am trying to push my code to my Github account using the guidelines from the Git Help. I tried both command-line and the GUI tool-GitExtension. I am able to perform the initial steps successfully but when I do "git push origin master" to push my code ,I get no response. I dont think it should be a problem of SSH as I am not able to push it even when I use the "https" url as remote.
