This is why I keep encouraging folks to a) have a mirror & b) make sure their tools automatically pick up the mirrors.

I recently got mirror support upstreamed into Nixpkgs for fetchdarcs & fetchpijul which actually work on my just-alpha-released pinning tool, Nixtamal <https://darcs.toastal.in.th/nixtamal/trunk/README.rst>, for just this sort of thing.

That's great for the repository, but what about if you're using ghcr, actions, issues, or copilot?
