[FFmpeg-devel] Howto list + pull specific git branch

[David Favor]

The current Macports ffmpeg-devel package uses the
following git syntax for building:

    name            ffmpeg-devel
    conflicts       ffmpeg
    version         20120917
    set git_branch  1ad63ff14adb652996c4604da59a330cef0d494e

    ... ... ...

    platforms       darwin
    homepage        http://www.ffmpeg.org/
    master_sites \
     "http://git.videolan.org/gitweb.cgi?p=ffmpeg.git;a=snapshot;h=${git_branch};sf=tgz;dummy="
    dist_subdir     ffmpeg

I've tried to figure out the syntax to list + pull by
specific branch ids and it's beyond me.

In a previous email h=n0.11.1 was suggested and this fails
because of the weird way the Portfile is laid out.

Pass along the git syntax to list all the branch info
like tags (0.11.1, 1.0, etc) and map them to their
associated git branch ids (like git_branch above).

Thanks.
