MarsSeed [1] filed a deletion request for ethminer-etchash-git [2]:

This earlier fork of ethminer has not been developed since 2020. [a]

Its upstream is 1.5 years newer, though it also has been discontinued
since Apr 2022, and its repo got archived. [b]

On Sep 15, 2022, the original Ethereum was replaced by the
incompatible Ethereum 2, which no longer requires coin mining because
it is based on proof-of-stake, not proof-of-work like Ethereum 1. [c]
Therefore old Ethereum tools like this one are no longer viable with
the current mainstream version.

(There is another community hard fork of ethminer called etcminer,
which is still maintained. [d])
