I'd heard that some distros of Linux were having an issue because of the version mismatch between git on the Codeplex server and the git client.  Have you tried updating your git client to the latest release to see if that helps?

my git version is

sto@jedi:~/workspace$ git --versiongit version 1.7.10.4

that's the latest for ubuntu 12.10

I don't have any problems with github

Just to let you know I'm having the same problem (I'm on Ubuntu 12.04, 32bits Intel)

I also tried upgrading to Git 1.8.0.3 (the Ubuntu package from the Git project) and even tried increasing the post buffer, but always got the same exception. I believe I was able to clone previous versions 0.8.0 and 0.8.1, but not anymore. 

I found some suggestions to use something else than HTTPS, but it seems Codeplex doesn't support HTTP:// or GIT:// or GIT+SSH:// protocols. 

BTW, I do use GitHub all the time, and there are no problems there. So there are scenario's where a HTTPS based clone is working on my system.

Some more info, my old fork goes fine:

git clone https://git01.codeplex.com/forks/jbaroncom/typescript

My new fork (made today) goes wrong:

git clone https://git01.codeplex.com/forks/jbaroncom/typescript2

good to know I'm not the only one with this problem. I got around this by running windows 7 on virtualbox and mounting my linux fs in virtualbox. It is odd that git on windows work but not git on linux
