Exit code 255 after large clone (32-bit PowerPC)

What did you do before the bug happened? (Steps to reproduce your issue)

$ git clone -v git@github.com:macports/macports-ports.git Cloning into 'macports-ports'... remote: Enumerating objects: 1223319, done. remote: Counting objects: 100% (685/685), done. remote: Compressing objects: 100% (341/341), done. remote: Total 1223319 (delta 289), reused 608 (delta 252), pack-reused 1222634 Receiving objects: 100% (1223319/1223319), 244.46 MiB | 1.09 MiB/s, done. Connection to github.com closed by remote host. Resolving deltas: 100% (702052/702052), done.

What did you expect to happen? (Expected behavior)

A successful clone.

What happened instead? (Actual behavior)

$ echo $? 255 $ ls -a macports-ports/ . .. .git

What's different between what you expected and what actually happened?

Exit value was 255 instead of 0; no regular files (only .git files) are visible in the cloned directory.

Anything else you want to add:

Other repositories have cloned just fine; however, this repo is considerably larger than the successful cases.

This is a 32-bit PowerPC machine.
