Hello,
In the github portgroup, the urls it uses to fetch releases are:
${github.homepage}/releases/download/${git.branch}
and
${github.homepage}/tarball/${git.branch}
which fetches a tarball that extracts to
${author}-${project}-${git_hash}/
which we then need to fix in post-extract.
The tarball for the release linked to from the github web interface is
${github.homepage}/archive/${version}.tar.gz
which extracts to
${project}-${version}/
which I think would be cleaner. (and is used in the majority of brew ports)
I found this issue while wondering why I kept getting checksum
mismatches in macports when it worked perfectly in homebrew.
