Description

If a user attempts to import multiple FBX files into a project that is set up with Git source control, the message "Updating file(s) source control status..." will appear and stay on the surface indefinitely, keeping the editor from being able to respond to any other action.

Note: Smaller FBX files will not cause this issue, and larger FBX files will cause a crash instead (reported only by a user, and never reproed)

Steps to Reproduce

1. Install Git for your version of windows ([Link Removed])
2. Create a new project
3. Click the 'Source Control' button on the main toolbar and select "Connect to Source Control"
4. From the dropdown for Provider, select 'Git (Beta version)' and the .exe's path should auto populate, if it doesn't it should be C:\Program Files (x86)\Git\bin\git.exe by default
5. Click 'Initialize project with Git' followed by 'Accept Settings'
6. Download the attached FBX file and create multiple copies of it (5 copies should be enough)
7. Click and drag all of the copies at once into the Content Browser
8. When prompted, select 'Import All'
Result: The editor displays "Updating file(s) source control status" indefinitely
Expected: After a short time, the FBX files should be imported without an issue.
