Unfortunately, this happens from time to time with SourceForge's Hg 
server when accessed via http (it works better with ssh).  I suspect 
issues with a http load balancer.  If the problem is not already gone, 
a SourceForge bug report can be opened about the problem and they will 
do something which will at least temporarily clear the problem.

Given the recurring issues, it is best to retain any GraphicsMagick hg 
clone since it takes quite a lot less effort to update an existing 
clone rather than clone from scratch.

I see that Google's oss-fuzz last tried to clone the repository on the 
22nd, and it did work at that time.
