It takes time, since Harbour SVN is large.
What I did for the gource video [1] was to download
the whole SVN database from sf.net with rsync, set
it up in my SVN server VM (a copy actually) and git
clone from this local SVN server. It was stable,
and much faster.
BTW, here is a better cmdline:
git svn clone -s --no-follow-parent
https://harbour-project.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/harbour-project harbour
Otherwise it gets messed up @ ~r8200.
