This comment almost makes me mad. The handful committers don't need

I don't need/use a local repo because my macports/sources.conf
points
to a svn checkout. If/when I see problems with ports I'm using I can
fix them there and generate diffs to attach to tickets. A 'svn
update'
of that directory won't kill my local changes, either.
So if I have svn checkout in sources.conf and I do "port
selfupdate" my
changes to <prefix>/var/macports/sources/svn.macports.org/trunk/
dports
won't be clobbered?
I didn't know that. How would I change back to the macports files
later?

It will use 'svn up' to update the working copy, so local changes will
be kept. Once your changes have been applied it is either fully merged
so it is not a local change anymore or you will have to merge it
manually in case of conflicts.

Thank you.
