But I was wondering something else right now. With github, you can actually retrieve commit points w/o using git at all. e.g.: {{{ https://github.com/tmux/tmux/archive/<hash>.zip }}}
This has 2 advantages: no dependency on git, and you can use checksums for the devel subport. This also means I could use the same mechanism for the main port, or use the .tar.gz files. Let me think about this a bit. Maybe ryandesign@macports.org has some input on this.
The github PortGroup does this automatically unless you stop it from doing so. You can check by running `port distfiles tmux-devel` -- which should give you a HTTP URL.
P.S.: Is there a way to 'mention' a person with @username in this ticket system, so that this person gets an email as well?
No. I've Cc'd Ryan for you. -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.macports.org/ticket/47951#comment:5> MacPorts <https://www.macports.org/> Ports system for OS X
