I think what OP needs is a way to know the repository size BEFORE cloning it first. In that case I think you need to query the git server's API, hopefully some GitHub or GitLab with nice APIs to give you that information.

Otherwise I'm not sure if it's possible?

True, my recommendation then does not apply to this topic.
