Right, looking at the date on the bug that should be obvious. My bad.

Does this work with URLs like:

git://example.com/repo.git?tag=v1.2.3

Those don't work with makepkg as it stands now. It doesn't work after this patch is applied, either. If we wanted to make that work, we could do something more sophisticated to take advantage of the --branch option in git.
