Correct me if I'm wrong, but as I understand it committers have commit

aren't committers were nevertheless given commit access for only the leaf

It looks like you're asking for a technical solution to a non-technical
problem.  Chris Rees has posted an archive link, and my take is that
we're already trying to ask such "qualified port maintainers" to become
ports committers and not care too much about how fine-grained ports
access is.


I personally think it's a bad idea for a port maintainer to be the committer for their own ports. Getting even minor changes committed to the tree should require two independent sets of eyes.
