I'm going to assume you're trying to download the latest Git for Windows release, which is hosted on GitHub and does appear to redirect to objects.githubusercontent.com. I don't see a problem on my Linux system, which downloads the file just fine. Do you have any sort of proxy installed, including a TLS middlebox, non-default antivirus or firewall (that is, anything other than Windows Defender or Windows Firewall), or any sort of monitoring software? The reason I ask is that some large companies (and some individual users of antivirus) have this kind of proxy and it blocks certain types of data. If you're using a non-default antivirus or firewall, can you try to completely uninstall it and reboot, and then try again? Unfortunately, disabling it is not enough sometimes and won't fix the problem. Another possibility is that you're using some custom DNS, which also might send you to the wrong site to "protect" you, or that you're simply in a location where you have poor connectivity to GitHub's object storage location. -- brian m. carlson (they/them or he/him) Toronto, Ontario, CA
