Agreed --- I've submitted a Metacello issue for this[1

This create a problem also because if you try to install agin the repo
it won't redownload the zip , instead it will use the same zip.
I don't believe that this is true ... the zip file is not the culprit.
the Metacello GitHub code does not re-download the zip file because the
cache directory already exists ... As pointed out by Peter you need to
use the `get` message to inform Metacello that you want the GitHub repo
to be refreshed[1] ...

For me this make little sense because in the vast majority of cases
your intention would be to download the repo version containing the
latest commit.
Except when you don't want it downloaded --- the download times can be
significant and I chose the explicit download as the default.
There is a command to do this though. Personally I don't like this
behavior.
if you always want to download a fresh version of the repo from github,
then use `get; load` and you will be happy :)
