Hi Niels,
since a while (max a few weeks), I see sporadic failures when cloning nettle.
E.g. when building nettle on the OSS-Fuzz platform:
Step #1: [0m[91mfatal: unable to access 'https://git.lysator.liu.se/nettle/nettle.git/': Couldn't connect to server Step #1: The command '/bin/sh -c git clone --depth=1 https://git.lysator.liu.se/nettle/nettle.git' returned a non-zero code: 128
Is there an access limit for IP address or something like that ? And if yes, do you recommend to set up a mirror ?
Regards, Tim

There is a mirror which is automatically updated on: https://gitlab.com/gnutls/nettle
Would that be a more reliable source for oss-fuzz?

Thanks, I know we have it and if the issues persist I'll change to there.
But I wanted Niels to know that something is not quite right with his server (and/or hosting). Maybe I am just bit paranoid after going through a DDOS recently at one of my customers sites. It started with everything being unreliable, flaky, performance drops...

Thanks. These machines are run by the computer club, with networking privided by swedish university network. We've had some recent outages (freebsd nfs brekage, kerberos breakage, a major web server upgrade, repeated power outages every summer connected to thunder in the area). But I wasn't ware of anything affecting the git server in particular.
If you need a mirror as backup or primary source, I'd also suggest the gnutls mirror at gitlab.com. It's updated every hour or something like that.
Regards, /Niels
