Both are fine. > However, what about comments on each of my changes? Should there be > annotation on what I have done, and how do I specify that in the PR? There are two change types: - those that you did to the port itself Only if your changes to the port are fancy, it's necessary to explain about them. - those that upstream did to the new version If you update from a.b to x.y and the upstream has a changelog, please provide a link to that changelog. If there's no linkable changelog, please provide a short block of text that explains the changes from upstream. If you put those changes in a comment field in the PR, that's very nice! -- p...@opsec.eu +49 171 3101372 4 years to go ! _______________________________________________ freebsd-ports@freebsd.org mailing list https://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-ports To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-ports-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
