 Attached is a Portfile for http://martine.github.com/ninja/

 They use date of release as version number. I was unable to convince them
 to change this¹, and I see a few other ports do stray from the
 major.minor.patch so I hope this is OK (better to use their version scheme
 than introduce parallel versioning).

 The Portfile uses git as fetch.type as they don’t provide distribution
 archives other than those automatically generated by GitHub, but I don’t
 believe these work well with port (because the archive contain a folder
 that doesn’t match the archive name).
