You can always create or add them to a .gitignore file. If at the top- level GIT repo, this file impacts the whole repo. You would literally add "*.o" (but without the ""s) to this file to ignore all *.o files. Just be careful to not ignore port-original files. Example of how I do it; slightly different than Mojca's: {{{ sudo port extract gr-ofdm pushd $(port work gr-ofdm) sudo chmod -R a+rw . cd gr-ofdm<tab> git init git add -A git commit "init" > /dev/null }}}Then, go about editing & any change will easily be found via "git status". You can also revert back to the "init" (or last commit) version of a file via "git checkout -- [filename]". Getting the changes is easy, via "git diff" ... but note that this diff is "patch -p1" style, not the usual MacPorts "patch -p0" style. It's easy to convert between them, but will generally be a pain if a lot of files have been changed. My git-foo isn't very strong, but these I know & they work quite well for fixing MacPorts ports via source.
`git diff --no-prefix` generates "patch -p0" style diff. -- Best regards, Zero King
