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!
