Long checkout time on Mac

Hi I build my project for Windows, Linux and macOS. I noticed that the Mac build takes much longer than the others and found that the git clone command takes 7 minutes longer on Mac. See this build: https://ci.appveyor.com/project/Pyrdacor/ambermoon-net/builds/46571338

Is there a specific reason for that? This seems quite high for a git clone/checkout.And it can't be related to the repo as it only takes less than a minute on Windows and Linux.

Maybe there is something wrong with the configuration/proxy etc?

   Could be a transient issue? If you can give me a few more links to builds with slower clone we might trace it to a particular problematic server.

   Well it seems like it isn't that bad every time but the clone takes at least double the time for some reason on Mac. Sometimes even 7 or 5 minutes.

   I also checked some builds from 2 month ago. Again clone/checkout is done in about 1 minute on Linux and Windows but takes 3 minutes on Mac.
