I'm suffering from the same symptoms as the "bug #7708 overview:
import of large (37K files) tree fails with 'broken pipe' error" guy. 
I'm trying to check out Wombat from the Nicta repository
(http://disy.cse.unsw.edu.au/Software/Wombat) which is a custom
version of the linux kernel.  It is obviously very large, and I get a
broken pipe trying to check out the code.  I am able to check out the
last cached version (wombat--mainline--0.1--patch-42) but it gets a
broken pipe when trying to patch this up to version 43.  The version
I'm trying to check out is wombat--mainline--2.6.9--patch-25.  What I
want to do to avoid this broken pipe issue is to tla get
wombat--mainline--0.1--patch-42 and then once that is done, patch it
up to the wombat--mainline--2.6.9--patch-25 version.  How do I do
this?  I've tried using delta to create a diff between these two, but
it attempts to check out the latest one which again causes a broken
pipe.  Below is a piece of abrowse --desc which shows the relationship
from the mainline--0.1 version to the mainline--2.6.9 version.

wombat--mainline--2.6.5
        base-0   (tag revision of
disy@cse.unsw.edu.au--2004/wombat--mainline--0.1--patch-47)

  wombat--mainline--2.6.6
        base-0   (tag revision of
disy@cse.unsw.edu.au--2004/wombat--mainline--2.6.5--patch-9)

 wombat--mainline--2.6.7
        base-0   (tag revision of
disy@cse.unsw.edu.au--2004/wombat--mainline--2.6.6--patch-2)

 wombat--mainline--2.6.8.1
        base-0   (tag revision of
disy@cse.unsw.edu.au--2004/wombat--mainline--2.6.7--patch-2)

 wombat--mainline--2.6.9
        base-0   (tag revision of
disy@cse.unsw.edu.au--2004/wombat--mainline--2.6.8.1--patch-1)

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
