    Git over HTTP can not be used to push a large set of references
    If you try to push a large set of references composed of data that can not be efficiently compressed (eg a commit with a large file of random data) you will get an error.

    The push does not complete because we reach the PHP memory limit and PHP segfault.

    The segfault is a bug in PHP 5 that will not be fixed [1] and we do not have easy solution to not reach the PHP memory limit due to limitations of the PHP API [2].

    Issue with PHP 5.3 and the segfault is no more relevant anymore, PHP 5.6 does not show the same issue. However Tuleap still reach the PHP memory limit when a large set of reference is pushed.
