jsdelivr: Intermittent issues with GitHub @branch files in large repos

Describe the bug I sometimes find jsDelivr link not working, the link doesn’t work for 1 day, and from next day it starts working again. It happened to me couple of times. I don’t remember what error it showed

The files are .json files and are on github.

Affected jsDelivr links I currently don’t have the url, because it happens rarely and only reproducible for one day.

I had to add fallback mechanism in my code, to fetch from raw.githubusercontent.com , incase jsDelivr url fails. If you would like to debug this bug, I will rewrite my existing code, to save the failed jsDelivr urls, so that you can debug this issue. (but please note that the issue will be reproducible only for 1 day, so this will require your instant attention after I share the failing url)

Thanks for creating jsDelivr

We added a retry for this case. In the past 24 hours, I still see one occurrence of a timeout but hopefully, overall it’ll be better now.
