If patchew has unreliable connectivity to git.qemu.org then the best thing is probably have a background job that mirrors the git.qemu.org repos on the patchew server. Then have the test job modify .gitmodules to point to your local mirror. That way, network access is used during the background job only, and actual builds just get a local clone from the cache.
