It already is working, please test it. URLs look like: https://github.com/squid-cache/squid/releases/download/SQUID_6_12/squid-6.12.tar.bz2
SQUID_6_12 is the release git tag. They are by convention named SQUID_MAJOR_MINOR The next release file would be named https://github.com/squid-cache/squid/releases/download/SQUID_6_13/squid-6.13.tar.bz2 There are several ways to track releases, the one I would find the most convenient is via the 'gh' tool (https://cli.github.com/) . Its 'release' subcommand is very powerful.
