Please provide real distfiles #5

Hi,

I am maintaining a freebsd port for libcli. but in order to be able to provide it we need a real distfile.

github guys also think that the tags aren't clean distfiles: http://support.github.com/discussions/repos/4017-tags-and-distfile-generation-issues

The main problem for us is the http redirection. With true distfiles we can access a directly link with no redirection: cloud.github.com with tags we can't plus the checksum changes each time the tarball associated to the tag is regenerated by github.

Thanks Bapt
