Yes. Instructions for trying patches before they've been committed are in our
guide:
https://guide.macports.org/#development.patches.applying
As for when it will be committed to our repository, that depends on the
maintainer of the port (to whom the ticket is assigned). Ken just added the
patch to the ticket recently and the maintainer has not yet responded. If the
maintainer does not respond within the customary 72 hour period, then Ken or
any other committer can commit the change to the repository.
