I wanted to revisit and close this ticket I started almost a year ago: https://trac.macports.org/ticket/33889
I think it'll suffice to check for a tarball download + an empty tag prefix + len(version) > 12. A hash can be looked up at any length as long as it's match is unique, therefore the length of 12 is a soft requirement. I didn't pull it out of thin air, though; it's from an early version of git / mercurial of making 12 a lower bound until better algorithms arose. Does this sound ok? If so, then I can commit my changes and close the ticket. _______________________________________________ macports-dev mailing list [email protected] http://lists.macosforge.org/mailman/listinfo/macports-dev
