   Is it advisable to use nonfree GitHub as a secondary mirror for GNOME's free 
   software?

When you say that GitHub is "nonfree", what do you mean by that?
We do not have any definition for calling a service free or nonfree.

See http://www.gnu.org/philosophy/network-services-arent-free-or-nonfree.html.

It's as much nonfree as Skype which you mention in your signature:
Skype: No way! That's nonfree (freedom-denying) software.

In Skype's case, both the service and the software are nonfree. Either change your sig or accept that you do 
have a definition after all ;)
