Quick solution:

With this kind of error, I usually start by raising the postBuffer size by:

git config --global http.postBuffer 524288000

(some comments below report having to double the value):

git config --global http.postBuffer 1048576000

RDP stops working when screen locks / turns off Ubuntu 22.04

Refer: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=63uppKZ_Alk

On PopOS 22.04 I installed the application with Firefox, it seems like newer versions of Ubuntu required me to use Chrome, instead.

sudo apt-get install chrome-gnome-shell
