It's sync'd once per hour, now.

It's more like 100MB for .git and 250MB for the whole thing.

I've regenerated the repository using an updated mapping, so if you
have a cloned directory, don't bother trying to pull from it.
Instead, just remove it and clone again.

BTW, for read-only access, use the git:// URL,

    git clone git://sources.redhat.com/git/gdb.git

unless a firewall forces you to clone via the inferior http:// protocol.
