getting HTTP error 409

I was looking into this and I'm afraid we currently cannot make this work with GitHub Pages. Only client-side redirects are supported, but curl and wget won't process those. They will only understand server-side redirects.

Either we only use the full https://raw.githubusercontent.com/zimfw/install/master/install.zsh URL, or we use a different infrastructure that allows us to configure server-side redirects. S3, for example, supports it. Having a more flexible infrastructure for serving pages might also allow us to upload the zsh-framework-benchmark results to be publicly available, which is also something we had in mind.

@Eriner, thoughts?

Subdomaining might be another option, say install.zimfw.sh for example.

I'll go ahead and change the url for the time being

Good point, @michaelhthomas! Redirecting on the subdomain level also works, and it's much simpler than the other options I mentioned!
