Single files - not sure (maybe a raw URL?).
However, any tag in Github can be downloaded as a tarball with a
constant md5. I often use this feature when I have to have a SRC_URI
for an upstream that doesn't provide tarballs. I just mirror them in
Github and point to the mirror (the alternative is a masked scm
ebuild, or a lot of manual tarball manipulation and hosting on
dev.g.o).
