Hi,

since you want to add "#commit=" as mentioned by Lex a simple

  $ man makepkg | grep -A3 geninteg
       -g, --geninteg
           For each source file in the source array of PKGBUILD,
           download the file if required and generate integrity checks. The
           integrity checks generated are determined by the checks present in the
           PKGBUILD, falling back to the value of the INTEGRITY_CHECK array in
           makepkg.conf(5) if these are absent This output can be redirected into
           your PKGBUILD for source validation using "makepkg -g >> PKGBUILD".

should do the job.

I've noticed a PKGBUILD for a git package that requires to IMO completely
pointless generate checksums, instead of skipping them:
