title: How to complete a git clone for a big project on an unstable connection?
body: <p>I am trying to git clone the LibreOffice codebase, but at the moment I have an internet connection of about 300kbps and it's just anything but stable. I can get the connection back any moment, but then the git clone process already stopped working, and no way to get it running again. Is there some way to have a more failure-resistant git clone download?</p>
  
  <p>One option I considered myself is to download someone else's .git directory, but that is overly dependent of others and doesn't seem like the best possible solution to me.</p>
