This is somewhat similar to René's case with the need to rename file after it has been fetched.
Yes, and my case used to be even more similar. Before I discovered the github mirror where one can fetch a tarball, I actually had to do a manual git clone in the post-fetch. And to avoid the associated overhead I archived that check-out so that a rebuild would be able to unpack a tarball in the post-extract phase. -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.macports.org/ticket/50969#comment:8> MacPorts <https://www.macports.org/> Ports system for OS X
