Try this locally, without any [D]VCS:

No question about the importance of the checksum, to prevent trojans

If I am understanding correctly, you seem to be saying that two
distfiles autogenerated from the _same_ tag etc. in the _same_
repository, and actually containing exactly the same code, can
nevertheless generate different checksums!?

When i worked on net/erlyvideo port there on github were tarballs for
some old versions of it. When i asked author to create tarballs for new
versions too, he just delete all the tarballs :)

I notice, that many software projects are hosted on social DVCS

Other common feature among them is absence of official tarballs

I've thought about checksums, but my simple experiment shows, that
tag-related (not tip-related, of course) archives give same chsum

stability.
Well, let's do at least one check with a one and a half year old tar ball.

Yes. But for good reasons, Mk/bsd.ports.mk contains the line
