Answer 1

Do you use https links instead of ssh links? Because the https link is limited by the size of the upload of HttpServer (such as Apache, Ngnix), there is no such restriction when using ssh.

Use the following method to switch to the ssh link.

1. Open terminal.
2. Switch to your project's working directory.
3. Get the name of the remote repository

$ git remote -v
origin  https://github.com/[user_name]/[project_name].git (fetch)
origin  https://github.com/[user_name]/[project_name].git (push)

4. Modify the git address to ssh link.

git remote set-url origin git@github.com:[user_name]/[project_name].git

If you determine the remote repository name, proceed directly to step 4. Now, you can do the push operation happily.
