Describe the bug
I receive an error when attempting to pull a fork of the repository.

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

  1. Create a forked repository on your own account
  2. Use git clone to create a local version
  3. Receive the following error:
fetch-pack: unexpected disconnect while reading sideband packet
fatal: early EOF
fatal: fetch-pack: invalid index-pack output

Expected behavior
I should be able to clone the repository.

Screenshots

Additional context
I'm not sure if this would happen with the main repository, but this should be tested as it prevents contribution.

This does not change when compression settings are changed in git config.

I had to update postBuffer with a very large number to make it work!

git config --global http.postBuffer 102428800

Resolution steps included can be found https://community.atlassian.com/t5/Bitbucket-questions/How-can-I-resolve-fetch-pack-unexpected-disconnect-while-reading/qaq-p/2320953

Having said that, this does reduce accessibility for contributions. The solution to this problem would be an aggressive reduction of the repository size, which can be done via e.g., reducing media size and removing other git objects.
