I just found myself about to hack on the code for a port, and setting
up a cvs repository for it in order to be able to work in a reasonably
comfortable environment. After I was finished with my hacking (I
ended up with just doing a minor patch; it was less work than I'd
anticipated) it struck me that this could easily be automated and
would probably be useful. Below is a simple patch to automatically
create a cvs repository and check out from it from the hopefully
relevant part of the port:

# Depend is generally meaningless for arbitrary ports, but if someone wants
# one they can override this. This is just to catch people who've gotten into
# the habit of typing `make depend all install' as a matter of course.
There are a lot of improvements that could be made beyond this simple
patch; it would, for instance, be nice to be able to use the repo or
src area as the "distfile" instead of using the tarball (but you'd
want to be able use the tarball, too, in order to be able to import
new versions). I've not gone into those areas; I expect the members
of the ports list to have more experience with different ports than I
do, and thus be more easily able to judge what they want in order to
work efficiently.
