While the ssc command in Stata will continue to go to the original location, you can leverage versioned packages from this mirror:
global sscdate "2021-12-21"
global sscmirror "raw.githubusercontent.com/labordynamicsinstitute/ssc-mirror/$sscdate/"
net install a2reg, from(https://${sscmirror}fmwww.bc.edu/repec/bocode/a)
where the date 2021-12-21 corresponds to an existing tag. Also see ssc2 for more streamlined functionality:
* ssc2 may be installed directly from GitHub
net install ssc2, all replace from("https://raw.githubusercontent.com/labordynamicsinstitute/stata-ssc2/master")
