I've had a browse through the list archive and instructions at https://slackbuilds.org/guidelines/ but can't find any relevant comment.

Could I ask: Is it at all acceptable to submit an entry which does not download a source tarball but does a 'git clone' instead? Browsing through existing packages I could not find any which do this but it seems an obvious way to keep an entry up-to-date without maintainer updates to the Slackbuild script, albeit at a higher risk of future changes to the source breaking the build ?
