I simply did a bzip2 of the db file, uploaded it using "git add" and "git commit".
I just downloaded it now from "View Raw" and the shasum of the downloaded file matches with what I uploaded. shasum -a 256 ~/Downloads/employees.db.bz2 dd0b87d339494d2ee2f21a66a3b253f58c1a5517e7705427382c0ff8c5a6ada1 /Users/arun/Downloads/employees.db.bz2 and bzip2 -t does not report any errors. I guess you probably got the link using "Copy link" and used a wget utility or something. Not sure why it does not work for you (Jungle Boogle).
