I have a large git repository that I am hosting with Dreamhost. It has grown slowly over time and have had no problems with it until just now. It has no problem pushing and pulling but when I try to clone from the remote the pack-objects process is getting a kill signal 9. From what I have read this is dreamhost killing the process because it is using to much memory.
There are work arounds (clone on the server and then download) but I am looking for a permanent solution. The repository will continue to grow.
Is WebDAV my best option and will everything work the way it does now?
From what I can tell all your really lose is hooks. Git treats the WebDAV the same way it would with SSH.
