On this URL I'm able to download a .tar.gz which contains an official release. (I know it's also available on an API endpoint but this contains the test package too.
Now I'm wondering why this isn't working:
$ curl -O https://github.com/yarnpkg/yarn/releases/download/v0.23.4/yarn-v0.23.4.tar.gz I get some .tar.gz which is 4KB instead of 3.6MB. It isn't showing an error. What am I missing? I want to use this URL and not the API if that's possible.
