Github desktop repository cloning "hanged up unexpectedly"

Description

When using github dekstop, If I clone a repository, or publish a repository to github, made with unreal engine c++, It then throws out a “fatal: the remote host hang up unexpectedly” error. this doesnt happen with non unreal engine projects that I tried. My thinking is that the projects are too big for my github desktop to clone or publish from my pc, since It works fine in the college PCs I used.

Version

• GitHub Desktop: Version 1.4.3

• Operating system: Windows 10

Steps to Reproduce

Expected Behavior

for the repository to clone into my github desktop so i can work on projects, or for repositories using unreal engine 4 c++ to be published

Actual Behavior

at a certain percentage depending on project size or computer, it throws out an error like so: https://pastebin.com/72S18rD5 above the error log for cloning repository https://pastebin.com/Rzdfbrwp above the error when publishing repository in home pc

Hello! I solved it permanently by adding Github Desktop to the Firewall Exceptions on Windows 10:

Firewall -> Allow App Access through Firewall -> Change Settings -> Add other App Then add the GitHubDesktop.exe file found in User/AppData/Local/GitHubDesktop

No need to disable the Firewall now on my machine.

No problem @FerencRozsa, my ask wasn’t very specific. 😄 I closed the other issue and it’s referenced here. Is it a public repository? If so, would you mind linking to which repo you’re trying to clone? I’d love to try to reproduce your issue to see if we can figure it out.
