Recently, a bunch of services failed, because 'git fetch' failed.

It looks like the CI got rate-limited, but there are no clear limits on Git operations apparently: it depends on other traffic usage.

So let's retry, with a limited exponential backoff, waiting max ~32.5 minutes. Hopefully it would work instead of crashing.
