You simply set:

PORTNAME=    BackupPC
PORTVERSION=    4.1.2
MASTER_SITES=   
https://github.com/backuppc/backuppc/releases/tag/${PORTVERSION}

or set PORTNAME to a lowercase version and set DISTNAME=
BackupPC-${PORTVERSION}


There used to be a GITHUB_RELEASE shortcut, but GitHub deprecated it
years ago and as far as I remember, asked us to not provide it.
