There is no detriment that I can discern by naming patchfiles "patch-
*.diff" as port lint recommends. There is a detriment by not
following this convention which has been discussed at length before

This warning has been in port lint for quite some time already. It's
just now been made an automated email.

automated portlint is great, I'm wondering why we need a new
".diff" Official Policy just to appease certain people's editors.
