Since MP doesn't keep logs (!) I keep them myself and investigate when 
something doesn't work properly.

No, because, as I said, it would revert to a previous tree state. The thing is 
doing it by reinstalling only the upgraded ports and not the whole tree. It 
shouldn't be difficult to implement.

I've reset it again (third time this month) and it should sync up again in a 
couple hours.

We're aware of the problem and are in contact with GitHub support to
resolve the issue.

If you want to help out, we'd welcome a pull requests that makes

rsync server out of date?

I just ran `port sync`, but the ports are several days behind the GitHub 
repository.
Is anyone else having this problem?

Build base archives for CI in a separate repository

2017-07-22 Thread Zero King

Hi,

In [1], I patched MacPorts in an attempt to fix a bug (port(1) failed
randomly on Travis). As it seems to be a Travis-specific bug, I plan to
use a separate repository to generate MacPorts archives used in CI and
keep the patch there. This way we can update the CI-specific archives
without a new release in macports-base (e.g. when new releases of macOS
become available on Travis).

https://github.com/macports-staging/macports-base/commit/282e498ac51ba40bdfd43008ce430ca20a7d54ce#diff-d7db55f70d83fc9dba4ef14de9febe71
