Unless you solve plist problem (and completely automated plist generation would be a fantastic thing to have!), such functionality should not be available (or at least advertised) to end-users. You may also consider moving it to separate file (bsd.maintainer.mk). I don't quite get the logic behind ${USER} == ${SVN_USER} conditional. Why do you assume that if my username is the same as username for svn checkout then I want to upload snapshot to freefall ? In addition not every maintainer has @freebsd.org account. Uploading should be customizable (maybe UPLOAD_CMD - like FETCH_CMD). Other than that I really like the idea (maintainer part) since I had to do something similar recently with smartmontools and having a standardised way to prepare ports for svn snapshots would have saved me some time. FWIW here is how I did it (in port's Makefile): PORTVERSION= 5.38.r${SVNREVISION} SVNREVISION= 2924 # no prebuilt files in svn USE_AUTOTOOLS= aclocal:110 autoheader:262 automake:110 autoconf:262 # skip... .if defined(MAINTAINER_MODE) DISTFILES= SVN_URL= https://path/to/trunk x-maintainer-make-snapshot: svn export -r${SVNREVISION} ${SVN_URL} ${DISTNAME} ${TAR} -cjvf ${DISTNAME}.tar.bz2 ${DISTNAME} ${RM} -rf ${DISTNAME} post-extract: svn co -r${SVNREVISION} ${SVN_URL} ${WRKSRC} .if defined(HEAD_REVISION) SVNREVISION!= svn info ${SVN_URL} | grep "^Last Changed Rev:" \ | awk '{print $$4}' .endif # TODO generate plist .endif # MAINTAINER_MODE _______________________________________________ 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"
