How to get data from a Github repository

Solved and in wrong section! Go help someone else! ^_^/>

Just make an http request (using http.get) to that url, and you'll get the contents as response.
This should work:

local response = http.get("https://raw.github.com/SuicidalSTDz/EnderOS/master/config")
if response then
  local contents = response.readAll()
  response.close()
  print(contents)
end

Just figured that out :P/>
Mine is more compact

local response = http.get("https://raw.github.com/SuicidalSTDz/EnderOS/master/config")
local sResponse = response.readAll()
response.close()
print(sResponse)

It's actually the same code, just that I checked if there was a response. You should make that check, the request may fail and the response would be nil, making the program error.

Edit: lol, just realized this is the tutorials section :P/>
