My buildfarm animals frequently complain of being unable to contact the
buildfarm server.  Sometimes there's an identifiable problem at my end,
but usually not.  A typical error looks like

error getting branches of interest: 500 Can't connect to buildfarm.postgresql.org:443 (Network is unreachable) at
./run_branches.plline 199. 

I've not noticed instability of connections to the git servers, though.
