Fetching a repository archive at the given commit state
FreeBSD ports system has knobs to download distribution files from GitLab instances. Here's an example code for bsdisks port:
USE_GITLAB= yes
GL_SITE= https://foss.heptapod.net
GL_ACCOUNT= bsdutils
GL_COMMIT= 0f48bb51cdee18b1a94aef46f7d0b430692ca92b
This forms the following link:
Such links work for vanilla GitLab instances, but not for Heptapod. So, I have no way to provide release tarballs of my project ATM.
