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.

Cheers.
