  When POST_PROCESS is used, the SITE_METHOD is not actually relevant (we don't 
actually make a tarball of the git, or at least we don't hash it). So maybe:

pkg_source_ext = $(or 
$(BR_FMT_VERSION_$($(1)_DOWNLOAD_POST_PROCESS)),$(BR_FMT_VERSION_$($(1)_SITE_METHOD))).tar.gz


  Then we an also make BR_FMT_VERSION_cargo = -br4 (not -br1 or -br3 to avoid 
conflict with already existing git or svn based tarballs).
