Have you tried cloning from git://github.com/angband/angband.git instead? If that works better, that would give us a data point about where the problem is. > Is there any way to force git to retry the connection? Something like > wget does with -t and -T options.

One solution is to create static "bundles" that are resumable, but not every service (nor most, really) does that[1]. However, you can try Tomas's bundler service, which will generate a resumable bundle for you: https://bundler.caurea.org/ -Peff [1] I hope to eventually have GitHub do this itself, but right now the client side of it is very manual. I have some patches in the works to make this happen transparently if the server advertises a bundle mirror. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
