I have a workaround if you need to clone or pull and the problem lies in the size of the repository history  It may also help when you want to push later  with no guarantee   Simply retrieve the last commits with --depth  number of last commits    You can do this at clone time  or  if working from a local repository to which you added a remote  at pull time  For instance  to only retrieve the last commit  of each branch    git clone repo --depth 1   or git pull --depth 1   UPDATE  if the remote is getting too much ahead of you  the issue may come back later as you try to pull the last changes  but there are too many and the connection closes with curl 56  You may have to git pull --depth  number of commits ahead on remote   which is tedious if you re working on a very active repository

You can set some option to resolve the issue  Either at global level   needed if you clone  don t forget to reset after      git config --global http sslVerify false   git config --global http postBuffer 1048576000   or on a local repository    git config http sslVerify false   git config http postBuffer 1048576000

I got this error while i tried to push a new branch upstream  git push --set-upstream origin xyz   I tried almost all of the git config edits suggested above including a system reboot  Nothing worked    So I went back to master and did a pull  went back to my xyz branch  did a merge with master and was able to push     currently on branch xyz git checkout master git pull git checkout xyz git merge master git push --set-upstream origin xyz   I have to say nothing in master conflicted with any of my changes in my new branch  xyx   Only a couple of new commits from master were merged to my  xyz  branch  This shouldn t have been a problem on normal days

Had the same problem hosting Go Git Server behind nginx and cloning  remote  Enumerating objects  103  done  remote  Counting objects  100   103 103   done  remote  Compressing objects  100   47 47   done  remote  Total 103  delta 52   reused 99  delta 51   pack-reused 0 Receiving objects  100   103 103   11 56 KiB   1 16 MiB s  done  Resolving deltas  100   52 52   done  error  RPC failed  curl 56 GnuTLS recv error  -110   The TLS connection was non-properly terminated   After searching RPC based issues  there appears to he a requirement to use HTTP2 Therefore this line in my nginx site configuration  listen 443 ssl    managed by Certbot Was changed to this  to enable http2 - which is not a default  listen 443 ssl http2    managed by Certbot And TLS in general seems happier  i e  I had other errors regarding curl and TLS  when inspecting verbose output  I have verified this as a root cause by removing http2  which reproduces the error and reinstating http2 resolves the problem

I had a similar fault  error  RPC failed  curl 56 GnuTLS recv error  -9   A TLS packet with unexpected length was received  when trying to clone a repository from Github  After trying most of the solutions posted here  none of which worked  it turned out to be the parental controls on our home network   Turning these parental controls off solved the problem
