I have tried keeping my bzr repo of Emacs updated. It is extremely
slow compared to GIT. When a connection breaks during a 'bzr pull', I
need to restart the slow process all over again. I would do the same
with GIT too, since the performance is good, I have nothing to
complain. I would still prefer if the tools could wait for sometime
before giving up. Usually when I use WIFI connectivity, there are
intermittent connection breakage due to feeble signal, I would be
happy if the tools (SCM) could just retry the previous request a few
times before giving up.
