For projects that only uses the autogenerated tarballs of github, you can use this in the Makefile: MASTER_SITES = https://github.com/<user>/<project>/tarball/<tag>/ And the content of the tarball is <user>-<project>-<commit>. In the ports tree exist some examples. Long time ago some users of github requested a more traditional/standard style for the tarballs generated by github but they never have been interested in this.
