Comment:

 This appears to have been [https://github.blog/2023-02-01-github-
 availability-report-january-2023/ a problem on GitHub] that was resolved:

 > == January 30 18:35 UTC (lasting 7 hours)
 >
 > We upgraded our production Git binary with a recent version from
 upstream. The updates included a change to use an internal implementation
 of gzip when generating archives. This resulted in subtle changes to the
 contents of the “Download Source” links served by GitHub, leading to
 checksum mismatches. No content was changed.
 >
 > After becoming aware of the impact to many communities, we rolled back
 the compression change to restore the previous behavior.
 >
 > Similar to the above, we are still investigating the contributing
 factors of this incident, and will provide a more thorough update in next
 month’s report.
