Unpossible!

I run git-cvsimport against Moodle's cvs repo on SF.net at least twice a day over SSH. I did it several times with anon cvs too. SF.net cvs servers have been up, down and unreliable the last week, but that's bad with the plain old cvs client too.

Can we get more info on what's happening?

No idea. I used it as late as earlier this week, but now I'm getting the error seen in the message.

It also frequently connects and immediately disconnects, which I attribute to the unreliability you describe.

I track a few projects from sourceforge. In the last two weeks they had serious problems, I often could not connect for more than a day. (And yes, I mean the anonymous CVS gateway, not the SSH which is only available to developers of that particular project.)

Usually I am lucky at 3am (+0200).

Ciao, Dscho
