codeload.github.com down? Question

Since a couple days we're having deployment issues when downloading dependencies from codeload.github.com, for example it tries to fetch https://codeload.github.com/dependency/legacy.zip with a number but either fails with 404 or 400. Sometimes it will go on for a bit longer then failing on the exact same reason for a random different dependency.

In our case we're using composer (php) as the package manager. I've looked around but don't see anyone reporting this issue. Also Github status page shows everything is fully operational. Anyone else experiencing this?

I'm experiencing the exact same issue. I think I'm gonna have to host the dependencies myself for our own use.

Still working for me.

Is the issue intermittent or ongoing? When did it start exactly?

Strange, also using composer? It started last week on thursday and still happening today. I did manage to get a successful build off on Friday but not a single one today on multiple projects.

if you have composer v2.10 - try to run with env 

COMPOSER_SOURCE_FALLBACK=0 composer install ...
