Using file(download ...) to grab a zip file out of the releases area of a private repository on github fails as of .13. The issues according to the logs is that the first link is an auth which redirects to the actual file to be downloaded. I see no new options to control following the redirect (may be wrong?) and there seems to be no work around for the issue at this time. CMake simply makes a zero length file of the desired name when this fails. There was also a prior ticket regarding enabling the curl commands to follow redirects by adding the appropriate flag, I'm guessing that flag is no longer there or a curl update changed it's behavior perhaps?
