Problem
Willing to concede that this may just be my own PEBKAC, but after struggling to understand why one repository would work but another one would not - I discovered that there are assumptions made around the URL passed in the
sources
section of the YAML. Specifically, the assumption covered here is that the URL does not end in a "/".For most HTTP servers, they'll see a '//' and (more or less) understand what to do and redirect to the expected path. For some repositories, however, they parse these '//' as literal paths which return a 404 or otherwise non-2xx code with the contents of the file as expected.
