I am wondering what it would take to directly use get.jenkins.io instead of update-center. update-center.json is available from the mirror as well as you can see here -> https://get.jenkins.io/updates/current/update-center.json?mirrorlist
The challenge is because the json is potentially generated every 3 minutes, it's hard for mirrors to stay up to date but we still control some of them. If no mirrors have the file with the correct checksum, then it fallback to a hardcode mirror that we configured. We could also ask mirrors maintainers to sync "/updates" every three minutes, it doesn't represent a lot of files. Also, we must ensure that mirrorbits scan files from /updates every few minutes to generate file hashes. On Tue, Nov 17, 2020, at 7:03 PM, Daniel Beck wrote: > > > > On 17.
