The "too big fetch" issue has since been fixed in "master", as well as reverting the switch to the v2 protocol (which I think is just belt-and-suspenders; AFAIK there are no known issues after the fix). Both will be in v2.27. I don't see anything on "maint", but they _could_ be part of an eventual v2.26.3.

The fix was merged in 0b07eecf6e (Merge branch 'jt/v2-fetch-nego-fix', 2020-05-01) for reference.
