The gcc.gnu.org Git repo was getting hammered last week by a large
number of hosts in a Cloudflare IP block. It was affecting the
responsiveness of Bugzilla and other services on gcc.gnu.org, so a
large IP range got blocked at the firewall level.

I'll make the admins aware of your mail, maybe they can remove the
block now, or block a smaller range. But if some idiot keeps abusing
the server from Cloudflare networks, it will probably stay blocked.
Maybe as a customer you could get Cloudflare to deal with the abusive
hosts so that we don't have to use the banhammer :-)
