Answer 1

I agree with the current answers, I just wanna add little more information, Here's a good functionality

if you want to require just zip file but the owner has not prepared a zip file,

To simply download a repository as a zip file: add the extra path /zipball/master/ to the end of the repository URL, This will give you a full ZIP file

For example, here is your repository

https://github.com/spring-projects/spring-data-graph-examples

Add zipball/master/ in your repository link

https://github.com/spring-projects/spring-data-graph-examples/zipball/master/

Paste the URL into your browser and it will give you a zip file to download
