Git stops forever while cloning remote repo

Hello all.

I try to clone https://github.com/angband/angband.git locally, and git stops in the middle, again and again, in different places. For instance, one time it was 38% of full repo, and another time it was 4% of depth 1 shallow clone. Once it stopped, it doesn't try to continue anymore, just get stuk forever. My internet connection is fine, all other works perfect: wget, browsers, mail client. Is there any way to force git to retry the connection? Something like wget does with -t and -T options. I use git 1.7.9.1 from Debian testing.
