Why isn't the https.request callback called?

I have some node.js code where I'm trying to get package.info from raw.github.com. I'm doing a HTTPS request, but for some reason it looks like the callback is never called, because 'here' is never outputted.

Does anyone see what's going wrong?

console.log(options)

req = https.request(options, function(res) {
  console.log('here')
  res.setEncoding('utf8')
  // ... more code here
 })

 console.log(req)

 // .. return -> listening and waiting

Output

{ host: 'raw.github.com',
  port: 443,
  path: '/jasny/bootstrap/2.2.2-j3-wip/package.json',
  method: 'GET' }
{ domain: null,
  _events:
   { response: { [Function: g] listener: [Function] },
     socket: { [Function: g] listener: [Function] } },
  _maxListeners: 10,
  output: [],

  useChunkedEncodingByDefault: false,

     requests: {},

     maxSockets: 5,
     createConnection: [Function: createConnection] },
  socketPath: undefined,

  path: '/jasny/bootstrap/2.2.2-j3-wip/package.json',
  _headers: { host: 'raw.github.com' },

}

For the full code see lib/packageinfo.js. The function is called in index.js
