Follow-up Comment #6:

The git subsystem has been overhauled. Git no longer is used for browsing the
history of a project, or storing the history of it. A new internal tool,
called "Snapshots", does that. Git no only is used to communicate with the
remote repository through the network or an external repository on for example
a USB drive.

If git fails, that simply means that the remote repository is off-line, or
that the USB stick is not inserted.

So therefore, git failure is taken as that the remote repository is offline,
and it won't try again.

Next time a remote repository sync is due, git just tries again. If the
repository was accessible, well, git succeeds, and if it is  still offline,
then it fails, and won't try again.

Therefore, as it is working now, it seems to me to be working well.
