Hi,

I assume this community is at least slightly familiar with Tor and its usefulness, so I'll cut to the chase. The Git website git-scm.com is behind Cloudflare, which is currently configured to block suspicious requests which unfortunately include Tor users. It would be greatly appreciated to lower Cloudflare security settings to allow Tor users. If the additional traffic really becomes an issue (I see the website uses RoR backend [1]) then consider caching pages if that isn't already done.

Ideally the use of Cloudflare would be avoided entirely, but I will not get into the politics of that here. Being able to access the static portions of the site behind Tor is enough for me currently.
