I am trying to clone the linux kernel, the transfer speed seems perfectly fine, but curl always aborts:
❯ git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/archlinux/linux
Cloning into 'linux'...
remote: Enumerating objects: 78109, done.
remote: Counting objects: 100% (78109/78109), done.
error: RPC failed; curl 28 Operation too slow. Less than 1000 bytes/sec transferred the last 3 seconds
fatal: early EOF
fatal: fetch-pack: invalid index-pack output
I have tried adding or removing --depth
as well as using a different machine (one using Arch, the other on Ubuntu), same result...

On a new day, it now gets a little further:
❯ git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/archlinux/linux
Cloning into 'linux'...
remote: Enumerating objects: 78109, done.
remote: Counting objects: 100% (78109/78109), done.
remote: Compressing objects: 36% (26365/73234)
but still aborts whenever the transfer slows down for a few seconds:
❯ git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/archlinux/linux

remote: Enumerating objects: 78109, done.
remote: Counting objects: 100% (78109/78109), done.

The solution seems to be to pass --speed-time
to curl
via git
,
which I have no idea how to do even after looking at all git man pages related to configuration I could find.
CodePudding user response:
After lots of frustration it became apparent that the problem was once again in front of the computer. The following option in my git config was the culprit:
[http]
lowSpeedLimit = 1000
lowSpeedTime = 3
Raising the values fixed it.
