Hello,

I am currently running into an issue when trying to clone got-www via got clone ssh://anonymous@got.gameoftrees.org/got.git.
My first time cloning the repo, I encountered this error:
got-fetch-pack: pack file checksum mismatch
got: bad pack file

I naturally ran it again and it succeeded. I created a small shell script to run a small experiment. Out of 10 clones, 6 fail. 
I then tried to clone got.git and encountered no errors.

Any advice on how to debug this error would be appreciated. 

Thanks,
Kyle
