I get the "open or save" dialogue here with both links and a fairly
new ubuntu-firefox system, so it may be that it depends on your own
personal browser configuration and settings. The MIME type of both
links is reported here as "a SH file", so both links should behave the
same for you.

In Chrome here, both links go to the "Save File" dialogue.
