Hi,

Sorry about my misunderstanding to the problem, the distinfo in
ports/166640 is correct.

It turned out to be that the distinfo I submitted in ports/166640 was
not commited with the Makefile change,

so after I did a portsnap and tried to install the port, it complained
about checksum error on the distfile.

This made me thought that I submitted distinfo for error version of
gist and that's why I decided to resubmit a version with correct
distinfo.


Currently there is no difference between using the tarball or fetch
the raw script from github since the content is identical,

but I'm going to install manpage for this script, (which I forgot to
submit with ports/166655) so using the tarball would be required in
the next few revisions.

Thanks!
