I'm working on a new port, and I'm having problems with Github. The url to the tarball is: <https://github.com/Snorby/snorby/archive/master.tar.gz>; This is what I have in the Makefile: # $FreeBSD$ PORTNAME= snorby PORTVERSION= 2.5.3 CATEGORIES= security MAINTAINER= pauls@utdallas.edu COMMENT= Frontend for snort USE_GITHUB= yes GH_ACCOUNT= Snorby GH_PROJECT= ${PORTNAME} GH_TAGNAME= master #GH_COMMIT= master When I run make makesum I get this: => snorby-2.5.3.tar.gz doesn't seem to exist in /usr/ports/distfiles/. => Attempting to fetch https://nodeload.github.com/Snorby/snorby/tarball/master?dummy=/snorby-2.5.3.tar.gz Obviously that fails. I looked through /usr/ports/Mk/bsd.sites.mk, but I don't see any way to override the part after dummy=. I tried making GH_COMMIT= master, but that did nothing. What's the correct solution to this?
