I updated both sides to current git and it still fails. How do I debug this?
What's causing this, "error: pack-objects died with strange error"?

My remote host is running 2.4.32, is git ok on that kernel?

No problem that I am aware of.  We are not *that* intimate with
the kernel.

Do "git-fsck --full" on both repositories pass?

I've just discovered that the hosting company has a mechanism for
killing processes that it believes are consuming too much memory. When
git does it's mmap's it looks like it is using over 512MB of memory
which causes it to get zapped. At least I think this is what is
happening.

You might be interested by the following config variables:

	core.packedGitWindowSize
	core.packedGitLimit
	core.deltaBaseCacheLimit
	pack.windowMemory
	pack.deltaCacheSize

Certainly one or more of them could be tweaked in the remote repo to 
solve your problem. But since your problem happens on push then you 
should look at the core variables first.
