We have recently seen a CI job fail along the lines of:
00:14:03.03 [ERROR] 1 Exception encountered:
Engine traceback:
in `lint` goal
IntrinsicError: Server error (502) downloading file helm-unittest-linux-amd64-0.3.3.tgz from https://github.com/helm-unittest/helm-unittest/releases/download/v0.3.3/helm-unittest-linux-amd64-0.3.3.tgz
This is almost certainly a transient error.
Describe the solution you'd like
Some amount of retry/backoff for this class of errors.
Describe alternatives you've considered
Retry the entire CI job on any error. Besides using a lot more compute, I would prefer to avoid treats invocations of pants as flaky things that need retry-wrappers.
Additional context
src/rust/engine/src/downloads.rs has a variety of references to retries already, but I don't read Rust well enough to be clear on the current state.
