Nack.

Though github provides a "download" tab, with a button to directly
download the source tarball,
the generated tarball url does contain the beginning of the commit sha1.
So, the download url cannot be easily resolved, at least the current
download infrastructure does not support it.

To, use a fix url stating with "http://github.com/downloads/", the
maintainers of a github project has to upload something.

As ref, a thread also talking about github download urls:
http://lists.busybox.net/pipermail/buildroot/2012-August/057570.html

BTW, in this list, only yajl does upload some material, but the
tarball of the yajl version we use in BR in is not available for
download on the download page... :(

I was too fast with this patch. I retest few packages and all was working so
realized everything can be converted.

I find a way how to get tar.gz from github but not sure if it will be accepted
when post a patch:

When define in mk file:
RASPBERRYPI_FIRMWARE_VERSION = d29291e3e7d90f0137a1416845c7569cf291255e
RASPBERRYPI_FIRMWARE_SOURCE =
raspberrypi-firmware-$(RASPBERRYPI_FIRMWARE_VERSION).tar.gz
RASPBERRYPI_FIRMWARE_SITE =
http://github.com/raspberrypi/firmware/tarball/master

It start downloading correct git sha1:

Can I use this method?

Of course you can! :-)


BTW, quick tests show that the beginning of the sha1 is enough for
github to match the revision you want to download, as well as
prefixing the sha1 with 'g'.
So, for example, it could be:
RASPBERRYPI_FIRMWARE_VERSION = d29291e
RASPBERRYPI_FIRMWARE_SOURCE =
raspberrypi-firmware-g$(RASPBERRYPI_FIRMWARE_VERSION).tar.gz
or:
RASPBERRYPI_FIRMWARE_VERSION = d29291e
RASPBERRYPI_FIRMWARE_SOURCE =
raspberrypi-firmware-$(RASPBERRYPI_FIRMWARE_VERSION).tar.gz

IMO, this is the way to go for non-tagged version.

For tagged version, the following seems working fine (to be confirmed):
CPULOAD_VERSION = v0.3
CPULOAD_SOURCE = kelvincheung-cpuload-$(CPULOAD_VERSION).tar.gz
CPULOAD_SITE = http://github.com/kelvincheung/cpuload/$(CPULOAD_VERSION)

If it is confirmed that this works, I'll definitely believe that's the
way to go ;-)

Care to give a try and resend a proper patch?
And, don't hesitate to add some note in the doc about how to form
*_SITE and *_SOURCE variables for github hosted projects.


Cheers,

This will work but this way:
 CPULOAD_SITE =
http://github.com/kelvincheung/cpuload/tarball/$(CPULOAD_VERSION)
(same is used in package package/sqlcipher/sqlcipher.mk)
