As Samuel said, the version can be a sha1. But as stated in the manual,
it can also be a tag.

So, you write something like:

    FOO_VERSION = v1.2.3
    FOO_SITE = $(call github,<user>,<package>,$(FOO_VERSION))

And replace <user> and <package> with the approriate values.

For example, to use their gcc, you'd write something like this:

    GCC_VERSION = arc-2014.08-rc1
    GCC_SITE = $(call github,foss-for-synopsys-dwc-arc-processors,gcc,$(GCC_VERSION))
