No repocopy required or permitted; if ircd-ratbox exists then a
repocopy over it will lose history.
Grab the PR back and just commit the new files in place.
By the way, 'state' should be 'repocopy'.

Sorry, I used bad terminology... At the time I thought repocopy was a
euphemism for "updating or syncing one port's current files with
another", but have come to understand that it is certainly not. I
definitely don't wish for the ports to be repocopied, sorry for the
confusion!
To clarify; the "-devel" release of ircd-ratbox is now considered
stable, meaning there is currently no development version available.
I've updated irc/ircd-ratbox-devel to the most recent release and meant
to ask if the two ports could please be synchronised, such that the
deprecated (old "stable") version of the port is updated to the current
release branch (by copying irc/ircd-ratbox-devel files over
irc/ircd-ratbox and then applying the supplied patch).
Thanks.
