I suspect a misunderstanding there.
A "nonsharing" license is one that prohibits redistribution in
general. Putting a copy in a publicly accessible repo gives people
permission to download that copy, and indeed the whole contents of
that repo; but if the file has a nonsharing license, they would not be
allowed to redistribute copies of it to others after downloading it.
