Thanks, Ken. I didn't think it'd be that easy. Only caveat is that it fails the livecheck and there's no way to correlate HEAD to a date. The commit could be read with 'git ls-remote --heads https://github.com/author/repo | cut -f 1'.

I know, but I don't see how HEAD is pragmatically that much different from the devel ports that use a hash+date instead.
