Description

Here are some little convenience utilities I've been using to make it easier to do repetitive, incremental port builds/installs during port development. I think they're pretty self-explanatory and definitely intended for Jane Developer but not Joe User.

port-edit-state​ (871 bytes) - added by RJVB (René Bertin) 9 years ago.
Allows to edit the state files of the given port(s) in YFE
port-update-state-checksum​ (890 bytes) - added by RJVB (René Bertin) 9 years ago.
Updates the checksum tag stored in the statefile(s) of the given port(s). Prevents that awkward moment you realise you forgot to use port's -o option.
port-redo-install-phase​ (2.3 KB) - added by RJVB (René Bertin) 9 years ago.
"Rewinds" the given phase(s) of the given port(s). To rebuild (and then reinstall with port -n upgrade --force foo) it will often be enough to port-redo-install-phase -destroot foo
