Is this even possible? I understand the files directory is a repository of patches that are installed with the port skeleton. If I add my patch to this directory I get errors. The top few lines of the patch are: diff -pruN mutt-1.3.27.orig/commands.c mutt-1.3.27/commands.c --- mutt-1.3.27.orig/commands.c Mon Dec 3 11:17:57 2001 +++ mutt-1.3.27/commands.c Tue Feb 19 02:58:28 2002 They are fairly different to what I see in the tops of the standard port patches.
