SourceForge randomly hangs up HTTP/HTTPS, causing code imports - especially code imports of large svn repositories - to fail.

An obvious workaround for this is to import a smaller number of revisions in each batch, lowering the chance that one of the revisions in the batch will be affected. We can either tweak the global svn batch size setting - but this then means initial big svn imports from other locations will take longer - or add a flag to CodeImport.

bzr-svn can probably also try to commit the changes that have already been processed, for a set of known errors.
