Git clone fails randomly
The pipeline gets stuck on the get task and fails after a while (~20 mins) . The issue is intermittent and when it works the cloning part just takes under a minute. Does anyone have any idea why this happens and if there is any workaround for it ?
Initialized empty Git repository in /tmp/build/get/.git/
Switched to a new branch 'master'

I believe it's somewhat unrelated and is probably a question better answered in the Git Resource repository, also I would recommend you to try to enable a more verbose output from Concourse, there's some instructions on their end on how you do that.
Unfortunately, there is no hope that you get any further support here (#246 was 2+y ago).
But recent news is that the Cloud Foundry community is now maintaining a fork of this resource at cloudfoundry-community/github-pr-resource.
On our Concourse installation at Gstack, that one is working fine. Could you give a try and provide feedback there?
(the new resource is a drop-in replacement; you only have to switch telia-ossto cfcommunity in in the resource_types: declaration, i.e. specify repository: cfcommunity/github-pr-resource)
