sourceforge can be really slow in serving diffs needed to clone the
repository... it once took me 3 full day until it stopped working for
a unknown reason. As Viktor, I suggest you to use rsync to clone the
full svn repository and then work locally. My script for Mercurial is
as follows:

cd /export/hg/rsync/
rsync -av harbour-project.svn.sourceforge.net::svn/harbour-project/* hp
cd /export/hg/repos
hg convert /export/hg/rsync/hp harbour-project

I don't know about git, but hg convert keeps track of already
converted commits, so it just does incremental steps. I may have this
in a crontab job...
