Trying to check out from the git mirror on a machine with a
slow internet connection, I repeatably get
$ time git clone https://git.postgresql.org/git/postgresql.git pgsql
Cloning into 'pgsql'...

It gets almost but not quite to the end of the data-transfer stage
before failing. I think I've seen this symptom before, and IIRC
we traced it to a poorly-chosen timeout somewhere in the PG web
infrastructure. I can't find a record of that in the archives,
though; the closest thing is [1] which is a somewhat different
symptom.
