Dear Git group,

I use Git at a web hosting service, where my user has a memory limit of
768 MB:

(uiserver):p7715773:~$ uname -a
Linux infongp-de15 3.14.0-ui16322-uiabi1-infong-amd64 #1 SMP Debian
3.14.79-2~ui80+4 (2016-11-17) x86_64 GNU/Linux

(uiserver):p7715773:~$ git --version
git version 2.1.4

The problem is that `git status` fails with an out of memory error:

(uiserver):p7715773:~/cafu$ git status
fatal: Out of memory, realloc failed
fatal: recursion detected in die handler

I talked to their support and their suggestion was to set a couple of
memory constraints and to run `git gc`. This seemed to work well – but
`git status` still fails:

(uiserver):p7715773:~/cafu$ cat ~/.gitconfig
[color]
    ui = auto
[user]
    name = Carsten Fuchs
    email = carsten.fu...@cafu.de
[core]
    editor = nano
    pager = less -M -FRXS
    packedgitwindowsize = 30m
    packedgitlimit = 40m
[i18n]
    commitEncoding = ISO-8859-1
[pack]
    threads = 1
    windowMemory = 10m
    packSizeLimit = 20m
    deltaCacheSize = 30m

(uiserver):p7715773:~/cafu$ git gc
Zähle Objekte: 44293, Fertig.
Komprimiere Objekte: 100% (24534/24534), Fertig.
Schreibe Objekte: 100% (44293/44293), Fertig.
Total 44293 (delta 17560), reused 41828 (delta 16708)

(uiserver):p7715773:~/cafu$ git status
fatal: Out of memory, realloc failed
fatal: recursion detected in die handler

Well, their next response was that they have no solution for me –
except, unsurprisingly, coaxing me into a more expensive hosting package.

I've read the Git man page about `git config`, but was not able to come
up with anything to improve the situation.

Any ideas what I could do to reduce the memory consumption of `git status`?

Best regards,
Carsten
