Yes, I see this too. I think it's

Sadly, I can't even get far enough to see this error. :(
It would be really great if a git person could look into this
stuff. An inability to reliably get the source code is extremely
problematic for an open-source project. If for some reason it's
impossible to use
git fetch --depth 1
reliably on savannah, then I think we should drop that and go with
git clone, if that works more reliably.
At this stage, I'll settle for 50% reliability... i.e. "if it
doesn't do anything within 5 minutes, then cancel it and try it
again, and it will probably work the second or third time".
