MacPorts 2.3.5 added the ability to list GitHub usernames as well as
email addresses in the maintainers field of Portfiles. Basically instead
of this:
maintainers jmr openmaintainer
you can do this:
maintainers {jmr @jmroot} openmaintainer
All the email obfuscation etc still works the same way, you just wrap
each email and GitHub username that correspond to the same person in
braces together.
Documentation of this should hopefully be added to the Guide soon. I
would encourage port maintainers to add their GitHub username to their
ports.
A couple more examples:
maintainers {jmr @jmroot} {raimue @raimue}
maintainers {jmr @jmroot} {example.com:user @example} openmaintainer
