The following reply was made to PR ports/81832; it has been noted by GNATS. From: Sergey Matveychuk <sem@FreeBSD.org> To: bug-followup@FreeBSD.org, asa@agava.com Cc: Subject: Re: ports/81832: [maintainer] qalculate 0.7.2 -> 0.8.0 + libqalculate port Date: Sun, 05 Jun 2005 21:47:40 +0400 > There are 2 reasons, that I've included shar instead of diff: > 1) diff weights more > 2) to avoid various patching problems Why we require diffs? We apply patches and make a commit. After applying patches we can easy see what files added/removed. We need explicitly add and/or remove files in repository. What can I do with your shar? I should extract files and make a diff and apply it to the exist port. Moreover when we look at a patch we can easily understand what changed. -- Sem.
