git push to remote error: remote: warning: inexact rename detection was skipped due to too many files

After I finish release on my machine... git flow release finish 'X.X.XXX.X' I then have to push the new release to origin. So I run these commands...

$ git push origin --tags (this works, results omitted)
$ git checkout develop (this works, results omitted)
$ git push (this works, results omitted)
$ git checkout master (this works, results omitted)
$ git push (this is what fails)
Total 0 (delta 0), reused 0 (delta 0)
remote: warning: inexact rename detection was skipped due to too many files.
remote: warning: you may want to set your diff.renameLimit variable to at least 1804 and retry the command.

So, I have read a number of SO posts and the git-config documentation. Based on what I read I set these values in my config...

$ git config merge.renameLimit 999999
$ git config diff.renameLimit 999999
$ git config diff.renames copies

Which results in this in the config file...

[merge]
    renameLimit = 999999
[diff]
    renameLimit = 999999
    renames = copies

But the same error happens. I'm not sure what else to try. Is 999999 too high of a value? Is there a limit you can't exceed for it to work? For diff.renames should it be copies or "copies" with double quotes? I'll try all those options it just takes a long time to re-setup a test scenario. The documentation says diff.renames defaults to true but when I looked in my config it wasn't present that's why I added copies.

Here is my full config file in case it helps...
