git push problem on ts117

git push, remote hung up unexpected, (after 1 hour, I realized I inadvertently added a 2.3 G grib file) 

I tried to increase HTTP post buffer

git config --global http.postBuffer 157286400 #did not work. same error. 

it did not work.

Workaround: tar gzip, transfer file from ts117 back to laptop through VPN. still not working.
