Hello,
Cloning the spectrum nixpkgs repo seems to consistently fail, after downloading all the objects, with:
fetch-pack: unexpected disconnect while reading sideband packet
fatal: early EOF
fatal: fetch-pack: invalid index-pack output
Have confirmed this across a couple of networks. Relatedly, the git web interface seems to always 504 Gateway Timeout while a clone is in progress.
I wonder if the git server is configured to only handle one thread/request at a time, and the clone process involves 2 concurrent requests? (either that, or the server is actually overloaded).
fyi, as a workaround: clone nixpkgs from elsewhere, then add the spectrum nixpkgs remote and fetch - it will also be much faster :)
Thanks
- Jamie McClymont

Hi! I think a large part of what you've seen here is going to be that
I've been working on the server doing some upgrades for the past couple
of hours, so services have been being restarted a bunch. If you feel
like trying again tomorrow, I'd be interested to know if the problem
persists during normal server operation.
Some better infrastructure is planned once I have some more funds
available. :)
