## Expected behaviour
Repository is cloned to local
## What I've tried:
- Reinstalling the app
- Turning off the phone
- Unmount and remount the file system (-t ios)
- Remount the file system as -t ios-unsafe
- `git config --global pack.threads "1"` (#943)
- `apk upgrade git`
- Cloning the repo into laptop (works)

Research direction
Start by reproducing the `git clone` command over HTTPS on iSH 1.2.3 with Git 2.32.6, observing whether it freezes during `remote: Counting objects`. Compare the behavior with the laptop clone and review related issue #943; done means identifying a reproducible cause and confirming that the repository clones successfully on iSH.
