That's a bug, https://issues.jenkins-ci.org/browse/JENKINS-22547 . A possible work around (which only works in some cases) is suggested in that bug report.
I realize this is probably outside your control, (like it is outside my control), but a 17 GB repository is well outside the bounds of a reasonably sized repository. The Linux kernel, with 6 changes per hour, every hour, every day, for the last 9 years, is still less than 400 MB. You may want to open a discussion with the people who are using git to store large binaries. There are better ways to handle large binaries than placing them in git and copying the entire history of every large binary to every machine in the organization every time the repository is cloned.
