Answer 1

I know this is an older thread but I had this issue today. It was caused by having a large number of files added to my repo without adding them to the .gitignore. I threw the COCO dataset into a deep learning repo so git was trying to list all 100k or so images, causing the crash. I just added the COCO directory to the .gitignore and everything went back to working like normal.
