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...
