I do this in some local Portfiles, checking it now it's seems to get
redirected, but it works.

Thank you very much! That works perfectly. BTW, it also works with
the short hash as well, ala ...
github.setup MythTV mythtv 9ccfac11f3
To me, if one is pulling a specific Git commit, the version should
include the date. Eg:
version 0.25-fixes-20120510
This way, when you update the port to a new commit, just update the
date at the same time. Unless, of course, you plan to update
multiple times per day! ;)
