I can confirm that even 1GB of RAM is not really sufficient to use a Git
repository that tracks the Linux kernel (I've so far been able to do it
on my 1GB Banana Pi, but not without trouble).
Not sure what this has to do with the RAM requirements of Debian, OTOH,
since the above problem would occur just as well under any other OS.
