Problem sending update to a port

2013-04-04 Thread Rod Person
I'm trying to send an update to the port graphics/fotoxx that I maintain.

I've created a diff of all the changes and tried to submit it but I get
an error that the diff file is too large. The diff is 5.9MB.  How do I
submit such a large change?

For a diff of this size, you should open a PR, and post a link to the diff
that you have posted at an external location.
If you don't have access to an external hosting service, you may send it to
me and I can help with this.

Example.
You may find the diff for this update here:
http://mylocation.com/files/something.diff
