I would like to highlight this bug:
http://code.google.com/p/lilypond/issues/detail?id=1615

After releasing 2.14.0 and 2.15.0, I deleted my GUB download/
directory -- I thought it would be good to test that all the
automatic download links were still valid, the whole system would
work from scratch, etc.

My attempt to build lilypond failed.  I have tried it half a dozen
times, letting it idle for 5-10 minutes before cancelling the
attempt and starting it again.  Every attempt fails.

As per comment #1:
  mkdir new-lilypond-dir
  cd new-lilypond-dir
  git init
  git config core.bare false
  git remote add -t master origin git://git.sv.gnu.org/lilypond.git
  git fetch --depth 1

fails every time.  Until this is fixed,
  *** I CANNOT MAKE ANY MORE LILYPOND RELEASES. ***


Past discussion suggests that this is a network-specific bug or
something, which absolutely sucks for debugging.  Unfortunately my
desktop is only accessible through 2 (yes, literally two!)
intermediate ssh servers.  But I am hoping that somebody out there
with a server can reproduce this problem, and then we can hand out
ssh accounts to knowledgeable git people who can look at this.

Cheers,
- Graham
