If I give the following url in a formula `https://github.com/OpenImageIO/oiio-images/tarball/3819677a7f` because there is no versioned tarball and we want to use a specific commit, then the file it downloads into the cache is missing the file extension .tar.gz I think.

$ ls -l /Users/nibbles/Library/Caches/Homebrew/381*
-rw-r--r-- 1 nibbles staff 4643596 Feb 18 22:08 /Users/nibbles/Library/Caches/Homebrew/3819677a7f

$ gfile /Users/nibbles/Library/Caches/Homebrew/3819677a7f
/Users/nibbles/Library/Caches/Homebrew/3819677a7f: gzip compressed data, from Unix

I'm not sure if that is expected.
