I am trying to clone the tensorflow/models repo. I am connected to the remote machine with ssh. I tried many suggestions out there for fixing the issue but none worked for me.
git clone --recursive https://github.com/tensorflow/models.git
Cloning into 'models'...

The problem was that I was trying to clone in the nfs file system. The solution is to clone the repo in non-nfs location, and then move the folder to the desired nfs location.
cd /tmp (non nfs location)
git clone blablabla.git
mv blablabla ~
