Any opinions on that? >=20 If a new port shared the history of an existing port, usually by being a newer or development version of a stable port, we do a repocopy for starting the new port to preserve that history. Without looking at the patch, I'd say that this rule goes for the rt34 to rt36 move as well. Unless the new source is completely unrelated to the old one, a repocopy is the way to go.
