gtetlow has been so kind to add the ports infrastructure files to the import from the FreeBSD cvs repository to a vendor branch perforce. The files under ports/ include CHANGES, KNOBS, LEGAL, MOVED, Makefile, Mk/, Templates/, Tools/ and UPDATING. This gives people wanting to do development on the ports infrastructure and scripts a real RCS before things are added to cvs. In general, before patches are committed to the ports infrastructure they are thoroughly tested by a build of all ports on the pointyhat cluster. Perforce give people the possiblity to keep patches in a RCS before they are ready for a pointyhat test run. I already started my own branch.
