Can you try a more recent version easily (2.12.0 just came out)? I don't think that they have any newer version available, having just upgraded from Git 1.7 a couple of weeks ago... (1und1) Git 1.7 used to work for me in the same environment, but iirc they also said they switched from 32-bit to 64-bit edition and blame the increased memory consumption on that change. I'll ask for a newer version, but I'd be surprised if this happened. >> The repository is tracking about 19000 files which together take 260 MB. >> The git server version is 2.7.4.1.g5468f9e (Bitbucket) > > Is your repository publicly accessible? Unfortunately, no. There are no big secrets in there, but just a couple of database details so that I cannot make it universally available. I can gladly give you access though. (E.g. by adding your public SSH key?) Best regards, Carsten
