Has GitHub banned combo_not.txt?

  • git clone hangs at 57%.
  • GitBub answers with 403 Forbidden on a GET for combo_not.txt.

I was able to get the file ~30 mintues ago or so.

I remember it pausing somewhere (and on retrying to clone the repo again I do see it stop at 57%), but I didn't wait for it to complete and stepped away. When I cam back several minutes later it had come down.

I'm still waiting on my second attempt, but I'm guessing it just takes a while and isn't being actively blocked.

Here's what I get:

and it just completed. Looks like it took ~11 minutes. Way too long for a 259 MB file, but probably not a conspiracy.

I get the same error when I try to use wget on the raw file, but I also got an error using wget like that for the readme file (albeit a different error).

git clone worked for me, it just takes it's time about it.

I should've left it as a zip file and used python to access the data in the archive. I am probably too lazy to do this now, but if someone wants to rewrite and do a pull request I'll accept it :)

I'll take your word on the ~11 minutes. I'd offer a pull request if it would be useful to anyone in the long-term, but under the circumstances I just downloaded combo_not.txt from elsewhere. Thanks. Closing issue.
