Has anyone ever pushed a file larger than 5 GB to gitlab?
If you have, I hope you share your experience with me.
I was able to push a 6.29 GB compressed (.tar) file 1 year ago (Feb 2020) using LFS, but now I forgot how I did it.
A few days ago, I tried to push a 5 GB file with LFS, but failed. It says Client error HTTP 413, while pushing files less than 4.9 GB with LFS works very well.
If no new limit is added during the year, something must be wrong with my configurations or settings.
Could someone help me troubleshooting?
Thank you in advance.
My configurations, commands, and error messages are as follows. (Screenshot of the command prompt)

I have also tried 500 MB and 2 GB, but failed also.
HTTP/2 is the default setting iirc
I have also tried HTTP/1.1. It is able to get rid of the HTTP 413, but still can’t upload successfully.
Thank you for your help.
