I think was Germano that found this formula, previous email demonstrate
that works for commit revision but also works for git tags and  
releases. 
Instead source url be like this :  
https://github.com/besser82/pipelight-selinux/archive/v0.3.1.tar.gz#/pi
pelight-selinux-0.3.1.tar.gz


Could be like this: 
https://github.com/besser82/pipelight-selinux/archive/v0.3.1/pipelight-
selinux-0.3.1.tar.gz


The previous discussion brought up that while tags shouldn't change, nothing enforces that and some upstreams might do that. That was the major argument for using the commit that corresponds to the tag instead of the tag itself.
