Description Ryosuke Niwa 2022-07-14 12:43:57 PDT 
I keep seeing an issue here the remote closes connection receiving most of the content.
e.g.

% git clone git@github.com:WebKit/WebKit.git OpenSource
Cloning into 'OpenSource'...
remote: Enumerating objects: 4973318, done.
remote: Counting objects: 100% (655/655), done.
remote: Compressing objects: 100% (417/417), done.
remote: Total 4973318 (delta 324), reused 474 (delta 231), pack-reused 4972663
Receiving objects: 100% (4973318/4973318), 8.33 GiB | 16.67 MiB/s, done.

Looks like the third attempt finally worked.

Nope. It didn't :( Hitting the same issue:

Do we have some documentation that recommends git@github.com:WebKit/WebKit.git? I thought we suggested https://github.com/WebKit/WebKit.git.

Hm... so you think HTTPS is more stable?
Comment 5 Ryosuke Niwa 2022-07-14 13:47:13 PDT 
Okay, so https worked. That's so odd! But I guess this is works-for-me.
