It looks like the domain raw.githubusercontent.com was blocked in China a few days ago. https://ntc.party/t/raw-githubusercontent-com-blocked-in-china-since-2019-10...
This affects GetTor, because it uses links like https://github.com/TheTorProject/gettorbrowser/raw/torbrowser-releases/torbr... which redirect to https://raw.githubusercontent.com/TheTorProject/gettorbrowser/torbrowser-rel...
It looks like raw.githubusercontent.com was blocked for only about a week. I heard it reported on IRC, and the Greatfire analyzer confirms that it was blocked on 4 Nov and unblocked on 10 Nov (no tests in between). https://ntc.party/t/raw-githubusercontent-com-blocked-in-china-between-2019-... https://en.greatfire.org/https/raw.githubusercontent.com

Thanks for following up on this.
We're changing the way Tor Browser is uploaded and accessed from Github due to storage and bandwidth limits. See: bugs.torproject.org/32480
Release links are not redirected to raw.githubusercontent.com, instead I'm seeing a redirect to https://github-production-release-asset-2e65be.s3.amazonaws.com
It looks like this was not reported as blocked in the last month https://en.greatfire.org/https/github-production-release-asset-2e65be.s3.ama...
