Thank you for your reply.  The situtation has improved over the past couple of days.  It usually doesn't work the first time, but mostly two tries are enough. I haven't needed to use a loop, but thanks for the suggestion.

I had the same problem.  I think it was due to the DDoS attacks that harass GNU resources more or less constantly.

I resorted to a shell one-liner to retry every ten minutes and after about an hour it succeeded.


while ! git push; do sleep 600; done

Since yesterday (Nov. 21, 2025), I haven't been able to push my changes to the git repostiory for my project, GNU 3DLDF:

git push
-->
ssh: Could not resolve hostname git.savannah.gnu.org: Temporary failure in name resolution
fatal: Could not read from remote repository.

Please make sure you have the correct access rights
and the repository exists.

For the past few weeks, I've been getting this message often, but when I try again immediately, it will work.  Since yesterday, it hasn't been working at all.

Thanks.
