Summary

Set via PR 229213

The reporter also asks to maintain the port since the current maintainer has been inactive for a long time.
The reporter already maintains several ports.

What's the policy about this? Can we snatch a port from a maintainer if he has gone AWOL?

In that case I would ask the reporter to update the MAINTAINER variable in the patch.

Test Plan
  • portlint -AC OK
  • poudriere builds for {10.4,11.1}{amd64,i386}, 12i386 OK
  • run test in 11.1 amd64 OK

Event Timeline

The maintainer change of the port can be done with a single timeout :)

About the question about the MAINTAINER, please read https://www.freebsd.org/doc/en/books/porters-handbook/makefile-maintainer.html

devel/hub/Makefile

I don't know how man works exactly, but is this man page still available when you run man 1 hub?

devel/hub/Makefile

Yes it does, although the format is not the one we are used to. For example, instead of displaying titles in bold letters, they are in ronn-format (kind of markdown) and prefixed with ##.

The man page is absolutely usable but not pretty.

I suppose we could use textproc/rubygem-ronn to process the manpages.

devel/hub/Makefile

It could be nice to have a real man page.

Convert man page from ronn to roff.

Now we have proper man pages for the port.

devel/hub/Makefile

^ you should probably use ${LOCALBASE}/bin/ronn

There is no ronn in base, and PATH has local/bin, so I am not sure it is needed.

Ok, in that case, looks good to me :)
