It looks like GitHub decided to disable Ehsan's repo and all forks
without notice. https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=943132
tracks it from our end.

Dear all,
For the past two and a half years I have been maintaining a git mirror
of mozilla-central plus a lot of the other branches that people found
useful at https://github.com/mozilla/mozilla-central. Over the years
this proved to be too much work for me to keep up with, and given the
existence of the new git mirrors that are supported by RelEng, I'm
planning to shut down the update jobs for this repository on Friday, Dec
13, 2013 and take the repository down.
I strongly suggest that if you have been using and relying on this
repository before, please consider switching to the RelEng repositories
as soon as possible. https://github.com/mozilla/gecko-dev is the main
repository where you can find branches such as trunk/aurora/b2g
branches/etc and https://github.com/mozilla/gecko-projects is a
repository which contains project branches and twigs. (Note that my
repository hosts all of these branches in a single location, but from
now on if you use both of these branch subsets you will need to have two
upstream remotes added in your local git clone.)
The RelEng repositories have a similar history line including the CVS
history but they have completely different commit SHA1s, so pulling that
repo into your existing clones is probably not what you want. If you
don't have a lot of non-merged branches, your safest bet is cloning from
scratch and then port your existing branches manually. If you have a
lot of local branches, you may want to wait for the script that John
Schoenick is working on in bug 929338 which will assist you in rebasing
those branches on top of the new history line.
Last but not least, I really hate to have to disrupt your workflow like
this. I do hope that three weeks is enough advance notice for everybody
to successfully switch over to the new mirrors, but if you have a reason
for me to delay this please let me know and I will do my best to
accommodate.
Cheers,
