============= Solution: ======================================
[Plain]
(Http://source.android.com/source/downloading.html) has paragraph description, if seriously executed can solve.
1. log on to https://android.googlesource.com/new-passwordin the browser and use the gmailaccount number to renew it;
2. Click "Allow access" on the webpage to obtain the following information:
[Plain]
1. machine android.googlesource.com login git-<userName> .gmail.com password <password>
2. machine android-review.googlesource.com login git-<userName> .gmail.com password <password>

.
3. append the above information (<userName> and <password> with your own real information) ~ /. The End Of The netrc file;
4. The URI is changed to the https://android.googlesource.com/a/platform/manifest ('/A' is added in the middle ").
Then follow the normal steps described on the official website to pull down the Android source code.
The official statement is: Because access is basically anonymous, in order to prevent too many connections, the number of connections to the same IP address is limited. It seems to be using a gmail account for authentication. Www.2cto.com
In this case, you will often encounter this problem when downloading from the company network or using virtual machines.
