Then a default of 1 seems like the obvious "right" answer.
Unfortunately, it defaults to "unlimited" according to
https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki//etc/portage/repos.conf
sync-depth
Specifies sync depth to use for DVCS repositories. If set to 0,
the depth is unlimited. Defaults to 0.

Apparently, that's the default. Without any sync-depth setting the
fetch was stalling and then timing out after 60s. With sync-depth=1,
the fetch completed in about 1s.
