Github creates tarballs for tags automatically, for 1.3.0 tag it would be https://github.com/intelsdi-x/snap/archive/1.3.0.tar.gz, so you don't need to use git eclass. SRC_URI would look like:
SRC_URI="https://github.com/intelsdi-x/snap/archive/${PV}.tar.gz -> ${P}.tar.gz" 2017-10-16 11:13 GMT+05:00 <n...@troglodyte.be>: > October 16, 2017 5:30 AM, "Damo Brisbane" <dhatche...@gmail.com> wrote: > > Hello, > > I am wanting to make an ebuild for Intel's (Apache 2 licensed) snap > monitoring framework > (https://github.com/intelsdi-x/snap).
