I tried to add url xxx insteadof xxx in .gitconfig. If the length of
url exceed 125, git will not work.
I am using Ubuntu. The default version is 1.7.9.5. Maybe the latest
version solve this already.

Yes, this was fixed in 0971e99 (Remove the hard coded length limit on
variable names in config files, 2012-09-30). Git v1.8.0.1 and higher
contain that commit.
