Comment (by jcvernaleo):

 Since the upstream no long provides tarballs should I completely remove:
 {{{
 master_site
 use_xz              yes
 checksums           rmd160  627002cea8fecb2e4f418ff6f94e89e9b334c474 \
                     sha256
 6030b6881b8168546756ab3a5e43628d8d564539b0476578e287775573a77438
 }}}
 and replace with the git stuff
 {{{
 fetch.type          git
 git.url             http://repo.or.cz/alpine.git
 git.branch          672d6838a9babf2faeb9f79267525a4ab9d20b14
 }}}

 or should I leave the checksums in there so it can grab from the macports
 distfile site?  The docs don't give much advice there other than warning
 against SCM fetch types since they may not be reproducible (although using
 a commits as a branch should fix that).

 That commit is the one that matches the tarball by the way.
