I haven't really resolved anything, so this is mostly for the archives,
in case anyone else ever sees the same problem.  (Disk space is
certainly not the issue.)

I couldn't get "repo sync" to work on my Ubuntu machine, so I tried it
on Debian under kvm and it froze at the exact same spot.  Then I tried
running the git clone it was hanging on (as well as the one before it):

$ git clone git://android.git.kernel.org/platform/dalvik.git
Initialized empty Git repository in /tmp/dalvik/.git/
remote: Counting objects: 24680, done.
remote: Compressing objects: 100% (9173/9173), done.
remote: Total 24680 (delta 13264), reused 24418 (delta 13071)
Receiving objects: 100% (24680/24680), 15.04 MiB | 1.21 MiB/s, done.
Resolving deltas: 100% (13264/13264), done.
Checking out files: 100% (3313/3313), done.
$ git clone git://android.git.kernel.org/platform/development.git
Initialized empty Git repository in /tmp/development/.git/

The first command works, but the second hangs indefinitely!  Worse yet,
I ran repo from my slicehost and everything succeeds.  So I'd assume it
has to be an issue with my network, except I have no idea why one clone
from android.git.kernel.org would work while the other hangs forever.

(I tried git clone from the SheevaPlug in my room, and it failed in the
same spot as well.)

The verbose option to git clone tells me nothing beyond what is listed
above.

Well, from now on I'll just run repo on my slicehost account and then
rsync everything to my development machine, I suppose (until I figure
out what is up).

And for the record: I'm running git versions 1.7.0.4 and 1.7.1 on the
[real/virtual] machines that hang, and 1.6.0.4 and 1.7.0.4 on the
virtual machines that work.
