If you look at the actual request URL, you'll see that it is for github.com. The codeload.github.com URL is then a result of a server-side redirect. There *have* been many way to load tarballs from GitHub, but this has pretty much standardized in recent 2-3 years. And the fact that the URL scheme that is documented in the Packaging Guidelines (and probably the one used by the forge macros) is broken does not bode well.
