this issue is different from Git push "error: index-pack died of signal 9"

the error message is as follows:

remote: Counting objects: 40512, done.
remote: Compressing objects: 100% (8896/8896), done.
remote: Total 40512 (delta 31079), reused 40394 (delta 30980)
Receiving objects: 100% (40512/40512), 6.05 MiB | 22 KiB/s, done.
error: index-pack died of signal 99)   
fatal: index-pack failed

real    1292050m43.682s
user    0m23.645s
sys     0m5.872s

one more case:

remote: Compressing objects: 100% (4951/4951), done.
fatal: The remote end hung up unexpectedly MiB | 22 KiB/s

    What OS are you using? What git version are you using? What protocol are you using when cloning? (ssh, git, https, ?) – VonC Sep 09 '12 at 10:40
  • If you do it again do you get exactly the same error? I'm thinking it might be a network issue perhaps? How quickyl does it take for the error to come up? – Michael Durrant Sep 09 '12 at 15:48

    What is the host (ISP) you are pushing to? Presumably not dreamhost. – Michael Durrant Sep 09 '12 at 15:49

This is a loss of network connectivity more than likely - error 99 is coming from your ssh

Connection Closed By Remote Host

Try with

GIT_TRACE=1 git clone REPO new_dir

That will let you know exactly where it is timing out.
