Yes, I agree with Ernst - from a committer's viewpoint, it is easier to have all information about a new port in a single PR, as opposed to one PR with the original shar file, plus several PRs of updates in diff format. ;) Include something like [NEW PORT] in the Synopsis field, and then in Description area add something similar to: Supercedes: ports/59252 That way, a committer will know to close that old PR. Better yet, you may want to check out my devel/porttools port which will automate most of that for you. 8-) Sergei --nFreZHaLTZJo0R7j Content-Type: application/pgp-signature Content-Disposition: inline -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.3 (FreeBSD) iD8DBQE/xIUMFOxuaTulNAERAgwdAJ4oD5UOm6YglG61FMV0UyEQSfQ/cQCfbUXP dAF6L+l5sBcAVgdGL2tYtmM= =EnOT -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --nFreZHaLTZJo0R7j--
