Please keep the list in CC.

http.postBuffer doesn't affect clones, only pushes, so that isn't
relevant here.  You're experiencing something that is dropping the
connection over HTTP.  So you either have a bad proxy, or something else
is causing the connection to be dropped.  Since it's only over HTTP, I
suspect it's the former.

Do you have HTTPS, and if so, does it work if you try to clone over
that?
