Hi, We migrated from a cloned ports tree to using ports overlay in poudriere = a few months ago. We maintain a few ports and create and merge patches = for others, and we add them to our overlay while testing. We find this a = much happier workflow than dealing with git merge conflicts. I=E2=80=99m currently working on a new port, which runs as a daemon so I = want to add new UID and GID. I tried adding the files UIDs and GIDs to = the root of the overlay tree, but they don=E2=80=99t seem to have the = desired effect and the build fails with ** Cannot find any information = about group `reposilite' in /usr/ports/GIDs. Am I missing something? Should I just test it without reserving UID and = GID and wait until it gets merged upstream? .einar=
