It started showing up after the Gerrit 2.10 upgrade. As far as I can tell it's 
due to a combination of the following:

- Slow initial I/O speeds on AWS EC2[1].
- Git on Windows not being particularly fast.
- Gerrit 2.10 timing out HTTP connections after 30 seconds.
- The "retry" flag in Buildbot's Git step not doing much of anything.

Until one of these is fixed we have a build step named "prefetching git to work 
around Gerrit timeout and Buildbot retry bugs", which should trigger enough I/O 
reads to work around the timeout and retry issues. Unfortunately it's not 
guaranteed to work every time.
