I'd also like it if we could differentiate tags using YYYYMMDD and
SHA1s, currently github.mk thinks that an e.g. 20200723 tag is a
commit ID and fails to fetch.

This means that I need to use a specific /archive/ URL in
MASTER_SITES, e.g.

  https://github.com/joyent/pkgsrc-joyent/blob/master/smtools/Makefile

It's possible I missed something, but I'm pretty sure I've tried every
combination of GITHUB_* without being able to avoid this hack.
