+
+This page provides some useful hints how to work with our infrastructure. And they can also make your work a lot easier.
+
+== Set svn properties automatically on new Portfiles ==
+
+In the configuration for your Subversion client, enable automatic property setting and, for all files named Portfile, setting "svn:eol-style" to "native" and "svn:keywords" to "Id".  If you are not using Subversion's own svn command-line client, see its documentation.  For svn, you can make the appropriate changes by editing `~/.subversion/config` as follows:
+
+{{{
+...
+
+[miscellany]
+enable-auto-props
+
+...
+
+[auto-props]
+Portfile = svn:eol-style=native;svn:keywords=Id
+}}}
+
+
+== Apply patches directly from Trac URL ==
+
+Add the following functions to your `.bashrc` in order to apply patches directly from Trac.
+ 
+{{{
+function trac-get {
+    curl "$1?format=raw" -o $(basename $1)
+}
+
+function trac-patch {
+    trac-get $1
+    patch -p0 < $(basename $1)
+}
+}}}
+
+Use like this:
+ 1. Copy the URL to the patch from the Trac ticket page
+ 1. Switch to the ports directory
+{{{
+$ cd $(port dir foo)
+}}}
+ 1. Apply the patch
+{{{
+$ trac-patch http://trac.macosforge.org/projects/macports/attachment/ticket/.../Portfile.diff
+}}}
