Comment:

 At one point I looked into switching the github portgroup's tag livecheck
 over to an atom feed like the commit livecheck already uses, since
 downloading the full page HTML is unnecessary and wasteful.

 But it looks like now the URL we're already using is returning shorter
 output, which would be fine.

 But this also points out that MacPorts isn't sending `Accept: text/html`
 when doing livecheck. And probably we should be, right?
