Re: Out of memory error with git rebase

If 'git rebase origin/master' dies with an out of memory error
(probably due to a few of large binary files in the repository, the
largest being ~300MB and ~1GB in total in one directory), which
settings should be tweaked and how to get rid of the problem?  I
tried...

Try 'git rebase -m origin/master'. Without -m, rebase uses
format-patch+am, i.e., assuming there are changes to the binary files
that are to be rebased, a binary patch file would have to be generated
and applied later. This is very likely where git bails out.
