The connection wasn't idle -- the progress line was updating steadily
right up to the hour mark, then stopped.

I tried it 3-4 times, IIRC, and all hung at an hour. Also (as I now
know from trying the suggested workaround of splitting the branch up
into an initial revision-limited branch followed by pulls with
progressively higher revision limits) that a pull time out if the
revisions it's inserting are big enough. That happened twice.

I didn't use a shared repo -- I only expect to need one web2py branch.
