We occasionally see the this task fail for the first element in the
zuul.projects list with a MODULE FAILURE and a return code of -13
(SIGPIPE) [1]. So far we couldn't identify the root cause, so try to
mitigate this issue by retrying on failure. This solution is similar to
the one used for the "Synchronize repos" task[2].
There is a bug report in Ansible that fits
Since it's only the first element in the loop that is failing while
subsequent elements are successful, we currently have two assumptions:
1. As the task before is using a `delegate_to: localhost' [3],
there might be a problem with Ansible when switching the connection
from localhost to the remote host (node).
2. Since the task before is using the same SSH connection [4] that is
used by Ansible to push the git repository, there might be some
"leftovers" on the connection that make the next task fail.
3. There is also a bug report in Ansible [5] which might be causing
that error.

Mirror the local git repos to remote nodes
Warning
This role is deprecated. Use :zuulprepare-workspace-git instead.
This role uses git operations (unlike :zuulprepare-workspace which uses
rsync) to mirror the local prepared git repos to the remote nodes. This
may be useful if the remote node already has a copy of some or all of
the git repos.
