Problem sending update to a port
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? -- Rod Person http://www.rodperson.com When Columbus discovered America, where were we? -Ignacio Ek, Maya, 1970 ___ freebsd-ports@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-ports To unsubscribe, send any mail to freebsd-ports-unsubscr...@freebsd.org

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 HTH -jgh -- Jason Helfman | FreeBSD Committer j...@freebsd.org | http://people.freebsd.org/~jgh | The Power to Serve ___ freebsd-ports@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-ports To unsubscribe, send any mail to freebsd-ports-unsubscr...@freebsd.org
