Github offers source control services, it's not a package server. The CDN stunt was impacting other customers and they had to restrict brew's access.

- justinclift 10y agoInteresting, hadn't heard about it. :) Sounds like they weren't using GitHub's Releases approach for binaries, instead doing something else. :/
- mikemcquaid 10y agoAs both a GitHub engineer and Homebrew lead maintainer: that's not true. You're perhaps thinking of CocoaPods where there was some problems which have been addressed through repository reorganisation work on CocoaPods side and a new API that I added to GitHub for Homebrew that makes it easier to avoid no-op `git fetch` runs now.
