If you attempt to push a large set of changes to a Git repository with HTTP or HTTPS, you may get an error message such as error: RPC failed; result=22, HTTP code = 411. This is caused by a Git configuration default which limits certain HTTP operations to 1 megabyte.
To change this limit run within your local repository
git config http.postBuffer *bytes*
where bytes is the maximum number of bytes permitted. For example:
git config http.postBuffer 524288000
For 500MB (thanks @Hengjie)
