Looks like:
1. Curl doesn't consistantly follow redirections (maybe a bug).
2. Github is now serving their raw content from a Different domain.
curl -v -o mr https://raw.github.com/mhameed/myrepos/master/mr
* Hostname was NOT found in DNS cache
* Connected to raw.github.com (185.31.18.133) port 443 (#0)

so the new command should be:
curl -o mr https://raw.githubusercontent.com/mhameed/myrepos/master/mr
i.e. instead of raw.github.com it is raw.githubusercontent.com

yep, because unfortunately it failed to download it.
But if you run this again after the new curl line, it should be fine.

It should go in the /usr/bin directory, but this is in relation to where
your environment is installed, unfortunately I cant remember how to get
the path of this in windows to enable you to copy/paste.
In any case, running the new curl line above followed by the move should
do it correctly from the commandline.
I have updated the documentation to point to the new url.
thanks,
Mesar
