Add mirror sites for rosdep #2842
Conversation
| If you experienced network error during initialization, you may use a mirror site like `TUNA <https://mirrors.tuna.tsinghua.edu.cn/help/rosdistro/>`_ and `BFSU <https://mirrors.bfsu.edu.cn/help/rosdistro/>`_. | ||

I think this is a good idea to have, but I think we should do it differently.
First, let's add a new section at the bottom that is "Troubleshooting". Then I would move this sentence there, and expand it to show the errors you get if you have network errors, and also what you need to do to setup rosdep to use the mirror sites. That should be much more useful for people coming here to find out how to fix their rosdep issues.

Done. Though I added it in General section instead of the bottom.
show the errors you get if you have network errors
I added some error from ros-infrastructure/rosdep#826 and ros-infrastructure/rosdep#797; there are more examples in the issues of ros-infrastructure/rosdep.
also what you need to do to setup rosdep to use the mirror sites
That has been done inside the link, though in Chinese. Typically Chinese users would experience this error.
