When an update to a port is committed, it is likely to contain (a) lines like "Only in xxxx: yyyy" or (b) patches that are created against empty files using the "-N" option for diff. Cannot "patch" honor these cases? As a port maintainer, I have been caught quite a few times by committers not adding or removing files from the "files" directory in a port. Thanks, Stephen
