GitHub is using new domains:

https://developer.github.com/changes/2014-04-25-user-content-security/

Although the old URL is redirected, Joomla 2.5 does not follow the
redirects (at least when using curl), so new updates are not discovered
and the search for future updates is disabled.

Current versions of J! 3.x are not affected and will follow the redirects.
When downloading an update, Joomla will follow redirects, but only if they
return a response status of 302.  The download links were returning a
status of 303.

This applies to both Joomla 2.5 and 3.x.
This shouldn't be necessary, but Joomla gives an error when "Refresh Cache"
is performed in "Extension Manager: Manage" with Xmap selected.

This applies to both Joomla 2.5 and 3.x.  In 2.5, an error is shown, but
not in 3.x.  In either case, refreshing cache causes the installed version
number to be wiped out (blank).

Because the installed version number gets wiped out, a check for updates
will find an update, even though the update version is the same as the
installed verion.
Otherwise no update will be found for Joomla 3.3.

It's a regex match.
