    <p>I'm trying to push a bunch of commits that contain a lot of code and a few thousand MP3 and PDF files besides (ranging from 5-40 MB each).</p> <p>Git successfully packs the objects:</p> <pre><code>C:\MyProject&gt; git push Counting objects: 7582, done. Delta compression using up to 2 threads. Compressing objects: 100% (7510/7510), done. </code></pre> <p>But it fails to send the push for some as yet unknown reason.</p> <p>The problem is that it takes it a very long time to repack the files (I'm on a battery-powered laptop and it took about 20 minutes to pack).</p> <p>So I guess my question can be phrases thus:</p> <ol> <li>Is it possible to save the packed objects created in a dry run?</li> <li>Once saved, is it possible to push those packed objects and avoid repacking?</li> </ol> <p>I looked it up in the git manual and elsewhere and couldn't find anything conclusive.</p> <p>Any help or pointers are appreciated.</p> <hr> <p><strong>EDIT</strong> - Added the error messages:</p> <p>The first time I ran this from the commandline (`git push') I got this error:</p> <pre><code>fatal: sha1 file '&lt;stdout&gt;' write error: Invalid argument error: pack-objects died with strange error error: failed to push some refs to 'account@server:project.git' </code></pre> <p>The second time (<code>git push origin master -v</code>) I got this error:</p> <pre><code>Pushing to account@server:project.git Counting objects: 7582, done. Delta compression using up to 2 threads. Compressing objects: 100% (7510/7510), done. fatal: sha1 file '&lt;stdout&gt;' write error: Invalid argument error: pack-objects died with strange error error: failed to push some refs to 'account@server:project.git' </code></pre> <p>Note that in both cases, after the compression finished, I got this dialog:</p> <pre><code>--------------------------- PuTTY Fatal Error --------------------------- Network error: Software caused connection abort --------------------------- OK --------------------------- </code></pre> <p>While the dialog was open, the console read as follows (the "Writing objects" line was erased after clicking OK):</p> <pre><code>Pushing to account@server:project.git Counting objects: 7582, done. Delta compression using up to 2 threads. Compressing objects: 100% (7510/7510), done. Writing objects: 0% (1/7525) </code></pre> <hr> <p><strong>EDIT 2</strong> - After running <code>git gc</code> per Charles Bailey's suggestion, I got the following output after about 1.5 hours:</p> <pre><code>C:\Projects\MyProject&gt;git gc Counting objects: 10926, done.

    2. COI've added all the error messages. Note that I tried twice with GUI tools before I tried the commandline, but I aborted them because they didn't finish after a VERY long time and didn't report on progress or errors.

    3. COHow much memory does the system have and how big is the largest file? How much free disk space do you have? Also, what are the .mp3 files that you are putting under source control? Are there any potential permissions issue on your repository folder?

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.

SQuiL has stopped working due to an internal error.

If you are curious you may find further information in the browser console, which is accessible through the devtools (F12).
