Comment (by ryandesign):

 I don't know that I would necessarily display the Portfile's GitHub URL in
 the `port info` output. `port info` should be for users; the GitHub URL is
 for developers. Once the GSoC '19 MacPorts Web App is finished and
 deployed, we'll have user-facing pages for each port; we could display
 that URL in `port info`.

 However, I do have a shell function set up on my own system which gives me
 a `port gh` command that opens a Portfile's GitHub URL, so I realize that
 this can be useful.
