Your approach has a problem. The tag is added to prevent using a very old code.
We can drop revision, and switch to date, but what if tomorrow they will make
another release? Then we will have to increment PORTEPOCH again and again.
Overtime this will cause PORTEPOCH growth.
Upstreams sometimes release versions regularly, and then stop for a year or
two, then become regular again. Examples: devel/google-perftools, textproc/jq,
audio/jack.
Setting GH_TAGNAME still preserves the same general version, just moves it to
some degree. PORTREVISION can be used to track particular tagname.
