GitHub's autogenerated tarballs have had URLs like the following for as long as I can remember: https://github.com/tklauser/libtar/archive/v1.2.20.tar.gz Notice how the filename is ${GH_TAGNAME}, and doesn't include the name of the project. The trouble is the ports infrastructure fetches ${GH_TAGNAME}/${DISTNAME}. This happened to work but was undocumented. https://github.com/tklauser/libtar/archive/v1.2.20/libtar-1.2.20.tar.gz It looks like we'll have to rename it afterward, or use some other trick (like "${GH_TAGNAME}.tar.gz?/${DISTNAME}.tar.gz").
