Ah, well. This could be considered a bug... but it can be not.
The link is clearly marked "HEAD", so you are requesting HEAD
version of the file... which does not exist.

We could check if the file has HEAD version, but that is another
call to git commands.

What you want is the link to the tip of branch ("head", "top" or "tip")...
you are welcome to add that (or replace "HEAD" link with that).
Tip: href(...,hash_base => $hash_base,...)
