New MASTER_SITES macros

[jackp]

I'm new to FreeBSD and trying to update a few out-of-date ports. I was just reading through the documentation on MAGIC_SITES macros in the Porter's Handbook and noticed some newer, popular sites were missing.

Perhaps a more experienced FreeBSD developer could update the Makefiles (or whatever else powers the macros) to include GitHub, BitBucket, and Gitorious?

It's not hugely important, but would make things a little easier for us FreeBSD newbies

I'm still reading the Porter's Handbook myself, but neither Git nor BitBucket are in base. That may have something to do with it.

See www/youtube_dl for a GitHub example, sysutils/bbcp for BitBucket. I don't know about Gitorious, but would be surprised if there aren't already ports using it.

Thanks wblock -- that's exactly what I was looking for.
