Yup. I know the benefits. All I'm asking for here is a simple
statement, something along the lines of:
"If thou changeth something in thine port, which doth not
resulteth in PORTVERSION changing, then there shall be much
wailing and gnashing of teeth if thou doest not add/increment
PORTREVSION in thine Makefile."
in the "appropriate documentation". If, indeed, this is an
accurate reflection of PORTREVISION.
Here endeth the sermon as aDe gets shot down from the pulpit.
