dial tcp/ i/o timeout and EOF errors on pushing 1GB repo?

[AndrewJDR]

When doing an initial push of a repo with 1GB worth of large files, I can't successfully 'git push' the whole thing in one go. I always end up with errors like this:

Post https://api.github.com/..../verify: dial tcp: i/o timeout
Post https://api.github.com/..../verify: dial tcp: i/o timeout
Post https://api.github.com/..../verify: EOF

After retrying the 'git push' a couple more times, it eventually succeeds. I've tried this initial push a few times now, and I always end up needing to run 'git push' several times.
Any tips for debugging this?

I have had a similar issue and did the same thing. Took me a few pushes.

Git LFS uses what I thought was a pretty generous 5s timeout for tcp connections. Is it always that /verify endpoint, or are there other affected URLs too?

yeah always on verify for me.

I get only the EOF, but when I try to send a Put to .../objects/{oid}: EOF
Is there a way to change the timeout in a config?

@hons82: https://github.com/github/git-lfs/blob/3671987c9b346cb7e453d2ad07a0493152487239/docs/man/git-lfs-config.5.ronn#L35-L49. It needs v1.1.1+.

THX
I'll try with that

I still get an error on that... but twice with the same oid

error: failed to push some refs to '....git'

[bretonics]

I get the same errors, and it makes my internet go down
Post https://api.github.com/lfs/..../verify: dial tcp: i/o timeout
Post https://api.github.com/lfs/..../verify: dial tcp: i/o timeout
error: failed to push some refs to 'git@github.com:bretonics/****.git'

I have 4 files LFS is handling...maybe I should have pushed each individually?

I read an example here stating that this happens only via SSH not HTTP, would this be relevant?

[jaredmharris]

I'm also getting this error that @bretonics mentioned. Any update on this? I have Git LFS 1.2.1 and Git 2.9.2 installed.

[ttaylorr]

@jaredmharris Did you configure with https://github.com/github/git-lfs/blob/3671987c9b346cb7e453d2ad07a0493152487239/docs/man/git-lfs-config.5.ronn#L35-L49?

[kevincantu]

@ttaylorr @technoweenie do those timeouts have anything to do with SSH instead of HTTPS connections?

[technoweenie]

A timeout error like this is from LFS's HTTP client:

Post https://api.github.com/..../verify: dial tcp: i/o timeout

However, there is an SSH timeout issue related to a long running pre-push hook, as discussed in #2428.
