I've seen you committed this patch, but unfortunately it breaks all
Github downloads. It assumes Github provides a .tar.xz file, but it
doesn't: even if you request a .tar.xz file from Github, it gives you a
gzip compressed file:

$ wget http://github.com/gandro/input-event-daemon/tarball/v0.1.3/input-event-daemon-v0.1.3.tar.xz
[...]
$ file input-event-daemon-v0.1.3.tar.xz 
input-event-daemon-v0.1.3.tar.xz: gzip compressed data, from Unix

This is causing a huge number of build failures in the autobuilders.
For example, cpuload:
http://autobuild.buildroot.org/results/bcd/bcdf4bdca4d5f8ffc9c84afcadf1b057fc03e009/build-end.log.

So I believe this patch should be reverted, or at least the parts
affecting Github downloads.
