See all the runsvdir errors? That probably means that git-daemon's log output is going nowhere, since the log is not running. Which means eventually the pipe from git-daemon to the log will get full, and git-daemon will block writing out the log. And then stop dealing with requests.

So even if restarting helps now, it may fill up again unless you fix the logging problem (presumably by creating the right "gitlog" user).
