I'm seeing this gem here:

  [vonbrand@laptop13 git]$ git pull
  fatal: read error (Connection reset by peer)
  Fetch failure: git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/git/git.git
  fatal: read error (Connection reset by peer)
  Failed to find remote refs
  No changes.

Who shall I yell at? ;-)

Seriously, this is broken. I get 4 different error messages, plus a
(reassuring?) "No changes". Yes, I know this is what I'll see if the
machine is overloaded.
