Problem
The Git Integration for Jira application uses the JGit library which does not support objects over 2GB in size stored in git repositories.
Diagnosis
Jira admins will see a message similar to the one below in the Jira /application-logs/atlassian-jira.log:
Example Error:

Solutions
-
Remove objects larger than 2GB from the git repository history. See following articles for suggestions:
-
Move large files to GitLFS which is supported by the Git Integration for Jira app.
-
Filter out the repository from the special integrations (GitHub, GitLab, AWS CodeCommit, Microsoft TFS/Azure DevOps/VSTS, etc) using Custom API Path or JMESPath Filters.
