Description

It would be good zpm would be smart enough to download tar.gz snaphot instead of using git for case
https://github.com/$user/$project/archive/$label.tar.gz
It is not good idea expect that host has git installed.
One might be option what to use git or download tar.gz for installation.
Another one might be option which branch or tag to select.load https://github.com/$user/$projec
for example
load --download --label tag load https://github.com/$user/$project
results in download
https://github.com/$user/$project/archive/$label.tar.gz
If label is not pointed then default is master.
Here is related issue to use get github rest api to get list of branched or tags.
I don't know details but I suspect that it is possible.
Similar issues are for ssh://host/gitrootofproject.
