[gentoo-devhelp] Git and ebuild interaction

  I'm proposing a new eselect module to control cpu frequency scaling
at https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=584814  IANAD (I Am Not A
Developer).  Bash scripting is my main talent, and that's what eselect
modules happen to consist of.  I've got the module uploaded to...
https://github.com/walterdnes/cpugov/blob/master/cpugov.eselect and a
revised ebuild (as per comment 15 in the bug) is attached to the email.

  I can't get any further because I can't download the file via the
ebuild, to generate a manifest and a digest.  What should I upload on
the git site?  Should it be a compressed file cpugov.eselect-0.1.tar?
And what are the exact instructions for that?

  A separate question... where can I find a centralized list of ebuild
functions like insinto and doins?
