Background: I have created various ports, but I have never upgraded one to a new version (i.e. from a new distfile) before. I now have an upgrade to a new version of the port. I have: - Updated Makefile - Updated pkg-plist - Updated distinfo - New files in files/ - New patches in files/ I am slightly unsure how to submit this. The options seem to be: a) A recursive diff (I know about 'port diff'). b) An svn diff The svn diff is more work but if it is much preferred then I can do it. However, what about comments on each of my changes? Should there be annotation on what I have done, and how do I specify that in the PR? Sorry - I know these are basic questions. I am experienced in general, but not in submitting port upgrades!
