I think this is a race condition somewhere, maybe in the threading code?

SO suggestions are other git versions in the path, bad downstream proxy cache, slow or invasive network security appliance, which may be bypassed with ssh or VPN URIs, low resource limits in containers, which can be relieved by bumping resources or reducing sizes:

        git config pack.windowMemory 10m
        git config pack.packSizeLimit 20m

or huge repos which can be alleviated by a shallow clone --depth=1.
