Upstream being newer than a mirror is not a bug. (Could be a cron job updating it, or similar.) The mirror on microsoft github offers web browsing of the history, but git.busybox.net is the cannonical repository you can pull from according to https://busybox.net/source.html . The busybox website at OSUOSL no longer offers a browseable web version of the repository because LLM slop crawlers no more respect resource limits than they respect intellectual property ownership. https://www.npr.org/2025/09/05/nx-s1-5529404/anthropic-settlement-authors-copyright-ai A mirror lagging behind upstream is not a significant issue.
