--- Comment #2 from Jesse Smith <jsmith@resonatingmedia.com> ---
Thanks, I'll add my e-mail to the port and re-submit. And I've updated my
Bugzilla information.

I'm curious about the request of using git to create patches. I used the me=
thod
in the Porter's Handbook which says, when not working with a copy of the en=
tire
ports tree, to copy the directory of the port and perform a "diff -ruN
port.bak/ port/" to generate the patch. This is what I did, so is the Handb=
ook
out of date?

Th section I'm referring to to quoted below:

"copy the contents of the port to an entire different directory and use the
result of the recursive diff(1) output of the new and old ports directories
(for example, if the modified port directory is called superedit and the
original is in our tree as superedit.bak, then save the result of diff -ruN
superedit.bak superedit). Either unified or context diff is fine, but port
committers generally prefer unified diffs."

This is information no longer accurate?
