Hi there, sergei@'s commit bit was taken into safekeeping years ago and porttool's project in SourceForge [1] has not seen any CVS commit for a long time as well. [1] https://sourceforge.net/projects/porttools Meanwhile, we've been patching ports-mgmt/porttools to keep up with our infrastructure changes and whatnot. I was thinking of integrating those fixes upstream and continuing the development somewhere else. skreuzer@ seems to have a fork on GitHub [2] with no previous history and some commits on top. [2] https://github.com/skreuzer/porttools I, for one, ran devel/cvs2svn on the existing CVS history and converted it to git. The result looks OK and can be see in [3]. [3] https://github.com/rakuco/porttools I'm not terribly interested in becoming porttools' upstream myself, but if others fail to jump aboard that could end up happening. Thoughts?home | help
