Hi freebsd-ports@, ports-committers@,

I hope all is well with you.

You may know I have prematurely made Ports commits without review, 
namely 507359c509389602b4060b2c5e203c99911c3578 and 
0bc7478682b2d7c9393f2dd095d99072070a2f65.

I'm really sorry if I pushed these commits without approval.

I feel extremely guilty for making these commits without approval, and 
almost felt I will lose my commit bit. I even thought at times that I 
will have to switch my PCs/servers to Windows or Linux if all goes wrong 
since I will feel shame for even **using** FreeBSD [1].

Next time, I will try not to bypass review, especially for big commits 
that touch major packages like devel/glib20.

However, to unbreak the fetching for GNOME Ports that have been updated 
to 40.x, we will need to make one change to Mk/bsd.sites.mk. This patch 
is in https://reviews.freebsd.org/D30514 . This may need portmgr 
approval, but I won't commit it without approval.

Happy hacking!

-Neel Chauhan (nc@)

Footnotes:

[1] - For reference, I work at Microsoft and use Windows at work, but 
used FreeBSD almost exclusively at home since 2012, back when I was only 
15 (I'm 24 now), and more-or-less the only server OS I have run my home 
servers on since I set that up in 2013.
