Right. See this in the release announcement:

| Further details, release notes, and source archives can be found at
| https://github.com/squid-cache/squid/releases/tag/SQUID_6_13
| (look for the "Bootstrapped sources" links there).
| As a reminder, we no longer directly distribute our releases
| over FTP, rsync, or through mirrors.

And this where the change was announced:
