      In the mongo-tools repo, there is a file that is 54MB. ./.git/objects/pack/pack-34ef632047647a07130db6aeba3411e407f053f0.pack

      git by default seems to have a maximum post file size limit smaller than that, so the repo hangs when downloading this file during `git clone`.

      There is a way around the problem by changing the post buffer to some large value using: `git config http.postBuffer 524288000`
