You have to use the full address of the libgd package now:

git clone git://git.gnome.org/libgd

Or this happens:

Cloning into 'libgd'...
ssh: Could not resolve hostname gnome: Name or service not known
fatal: Could not read from remote repository.

Please make sure you have the correct access rights
and the repository exists.

I understand, but using date has some problems.
1) pkgver is notbeing updated it anymore without pkgver(), so the package will have the same date independently of the content.
2) date doesn't mean much, differently of the git describe content.

Allan mentioned this and more issues about pacman before 4.1 in http://allanmcrae.com/2012/08/changes-to-vcs-packaging-support-in-makepkg/

You forgot the best part: the pkgver() function. It updates your pkgver variable.

This method of GIT PKGBUILD is deprecated since pacman 4.1, you would please update?
Here an example of PKGBUILD working: http://paste.archlinux-br.org/2155

p.s.: Please, apply this new download method to other GIT packages you maintain
