I read this as "the server does no longer want to talk to us".

When converting from Subversion, it is recommended that you obtain a
copy of the repository using svnsync. You can then convert this local
repository.

The advantage of this approach is that it's much faster to convert a
local repository and you will appreciate this if you begin experimenting
with different option to the conversion (branch maps and author maps).
