gclient sync doesn't do anything

Question

I'm running the command:

gclient sync --no-history -j1

However, nothing is happening. Normally the Chromium repositories would sync, but nothing is happening. I have a .gclient file. Any suggestions?

This command doesn't print information about progress first ~20-30 minutes. Just wait for a while and you will see sync progress. In my environment it takes ~30 minutes until I see progress in terminal.
