    is authenticated like when you use a private key with git clone? stupid question i know

    also this might be terrible if you subscribe to filter lists on raw github in ublock or adguard

      Yes

      Yes exactly why this is actually quite problematic. There’s a lot of HTTPS Git pull remotes around and random software that uses raw.githubusercontent.com to fetch data. All of that is now subject to the 60 req/hr limit and not all of it will be easy to fix.
