cygport build/package issues

Hi,
questions for a new package:

  * Is there a way to specify a git clone for download rather than a
    download URI?
  * I have a build script (which also downloads actual sources). Is
    there a cygwin function to invoke it or do I have to put it into
    src_compile and abuse the compile step for it?
  * Is there a way to specify files (like the build script in this case)
    to be included in the source package?

Thanks
Thomas
