Another possibility, if it is the connection between you and the other
side that is the problem, is to chunk your push in smaller pieces. That
is, if you are trying to push out v3.0, you first push only to v1.0, then
to v2.0, and then finally to v3.0.

Peff, by the way, wouldn't this request reminds of us of a scenario we
discussed recently, which I said I would imagine would be common while you
dismissed as not likely to be common?
