Ubuntu wsl2 git getting "The remote end hung up unexpectedly" on large repos
The latest Windows Hyper-V has issues with your wifi driver. You need to get the latest from https://downloadcenter.intel.com/download/28876/Windows-10-Wi-Fi-Drivers-for-Intel-Wireless-Adapters?v=t
Once the new drivers are installed, you can marvel at how git in wsl2 totally does what it is supposed to. I will never get those 5 days of my life back. I hope this will keep you from losing 5 days of yours.
Here is the issue: https://github.com/microsoft/WSL/issues/4253
Update Nov. 2020: the latest comments on WSL2 4253 point out to:

sudo ifconfig eth0 mtu 1350# orip link set dev eth0 mtu 1350
Check your MTU:
