From: Jan Engelhardt Date: Sat, 16 Apr 2011 11:14:27 GMT Subject: Retry on all A/AAAA records Message-ID: Just now, some git server that is in the DNS rotation seems to have an issue, $ telnet git.eu.kernel.org git Trying 199.6.1.166... Connected to git.eu.kernel.org. Escape character is '^]'. Connection closed by foreign host. I thought it would be nice if git-fetch would retry the operation on the other DNS records that were returned if the connection breaks.
