Description
I am FreeBSD maintainer of the Trac and some packages. I was using urls like https://trac.edgewall.org/browser/plugins/trunk/spam-filter?rev=17858&format=zip
to download plugins. Recently some changes been implemented and it gives 404, e.g.
% curl 'https://trac.edgewall.org/browser/plugins/trunk/spam-filter?rev=17858&format=zip' <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//IETF//DTD HTML 2.0//EN"> <html><head> <title>403 Forbidden</title> </head><body> <h1>Forbidden</h1> <p>You don't have permission to access this resource.</p> </body></html>
This breaks all automated downloads. I did not found any github mirrors and not sure how to handle that. Is it possible to revert this back to allow programmatic downloads?

Thank you, and appreciate your help. I would also suggest doing a GitHub mirror for the plugins directory, too, so it would be easier to point to it instead.
Sorry for the inconvenience. Bots send a lot of request to our repository browser. We're blocking such requests. I just configured our web server to make the zip downloading not blocked. However, I'd suggest using Subversion client to download the sources rather than the repository browser.
