Comment (by ryandesign@…):

 Yeah, that's just how github works. We can use the github portgroup to
 deal with the peculiarities of the github hosting service.

 Usually the reason why developers release tarballs separately instead of
 letting users download from github is that files not in the repository
 need to be generated. For projects using autotools, this is often the
 configure script. This project uses cmake so that doesn't apply. I
 compared the two tarballs and the difference is:

 {{{
 $ diff -ru github-tag/vigra-Version-1-10-0/ googledrive/vigra-1.10.0/
 Only in googledrive/vigra-1.10.0/: doc
 }}}

 Is the doc directory important? If not (i.e. if the port doesn't install
 the documentation anyway) then sure we can use the tarball of the github
 tag.
