### Possible errors:

#### stdout maxBuffer exceeded

Reported [here](https://github.com/stevelacy/gulp-git/issues/68).

If you get this error it means that the git process doesn't have enough memory.

Every function has an additional option: `maxBuffer`.

```js
gulp.task('pull', function(){
  git.pull('origin', 'master', {args: '--rebase', maxBuffer: Infinity}, function (err) {
    if (err) throw err;
  });
});
```

#### The command line is too long.

Reported [here](https://github.com/stevelacy/gulp-git/issues/201).

If the `git add` command exceeds [8191 characters on Windows](https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/troubleshoot/windows-client/shell-experience/command-line-string-limitation#more-information) you will get this error.

The `add` function has an additional option: `maxFiles`.

```js
gulp.task('add', function(){
  return gulp.src('./git-test/*')
    .pipe(git.add({maxFiles: 8}));
});
```
