Hi All,

git is running very slow for me while cloning from llvm.org/git/llvm.git
while it is reasonably fast for me cloning from github.com/llvm-mirror/llvm.git

Please suggest which repo is used by most developers or what alternative I can use?

It doesn't really matter: no-one can push to either of them and the
github one is a direct clone of llvm.org (which itself just picks
commits up from the canonical svn repository).

Cheers.

Tim.

Hello Tim,

Thank you for the information.
I am wondering if anyone else is facing the same issue? Or it is just that my institute firewall is creating the problem.

As a comparison, I just cloned http://llvm.org/git/llvm.git and it
took 142 seconds. I'd be pretty surprised if GitHub was ever slower
than our pretty overworked server (it was 90 seconds for me).

But I wouldn't call either of those "very slow" for a project the size
of LLVM. So if you're seeing something very different, it might well
be local to your network (but who knows, really?).

I am still getting around 20KiBps. It might be a local issue. Thank you for confirming this.
