Hi,
I'm working on freerdp and guacamole clones.
I've got ports built for both thanks to various assistance from Stuart
et al.
However, they are both under active development and rather than working
with the tarballs, I want to work with the git repository.
I've done this a couple of times, but it seems fragile... download the
git repository, create a tarball named like the latest release, make
makesum, etc and keep going down the garden path. But then they bump
versions in the git (eg: freerdp3 instead of freerdp2) which I can deal
with.. modifying the guacamole build files...
It's not very "seamless" and I'm looking for a way to simplify it a bit.
For example, testing release candidates, different branches, etc.
Is there any elegant way to work with git repositories within the ports
infrastructure?
Thanks,
Steve W.
