We have a 4MB ADSL connection to our office. Yes, "git svn fetch" does 
continue for a while, then bombs out again. This morning I saw for the 
first time in 2 days new revisions being pulled in, so clearly that one 
revision was a very large one. But still today, the "git svn fetch" 
bombs out at least every 30 minutes, so I have to constantly keep 
restarting it.

I have no idea what the remote server's internet connection is like. I 
just know pulling in 14,000 revisions by restarting every 30 minutes is 
going to take a damn long time. ;-)

[  I have SVN! Git is SO much faster!  ]
