Example:

# Download a test file directly (latest version)
curl -O https://raw.githubusercontent.com/jonasclaes/test-data/main/pdfs/basic.pdf

curl -O https://raw.githubusercontent.com/jonasclaes/test-data/abc123def456/pdfs/basic.pdf

Benefits of using permalinks:

• Reliable URLs - Files are accessible from any environment
• Version control - Use specific commits for consistent test data
• Immutable references - Commit hashes ensure the exact same file content
• No local storage - Fetch files on-demand in CI/CD pipelines
• Easy integration - Works with any HTTP client or testing framework
