Move part of macports infrastructure to GitHub

[Mark Anderson]

Ok. I'm willing to play ball on that. Also since Atlassian products are
pretty cool. I just like the idea of a more modern workflow. If I got a
vote, which I suppose I don't, It would be git/github, but hg/bitbucket is
ok. Git/bitbucket is what I use on the side as well.
