Why am I getting 'fatal: the remote end hung up unexpectedly' when pushing large files?

This error often occurs with large files exceeding GitHub's limit. Use Git LFS for large files, or split your commit into smaller parts.

The 'fatal: the remote end hung up unexpectedly' error during a push operation to GitHub is commonly seen when trying to upload large files or a large number of files, exceeding GitHub's size limits or causing the connection to drop. GitHub has a file size limit of 100MB per file and a total push size limit of around 1GB. If your push exceeds these limits, consider using Git Large File Storage (LFS), a tool specifically for tracking large files such as media or binaries in Git. Git LFS replaces large files with text pointers inside Git, while the actual file is stored on a separate server, effectively managing your repository size. Install Git LFS, track your large files (e.g., `git lfs track "*.psd"` for all Photoshop files), and then push again. Alternatively, if you're pushing a large number of files, try splitting your commits into smaller parts to avoid overloading the connection. Following these steps typically resolves the 'remote end hung up unexpectedly' error, allowing a smooth push.
