addport - future replacement for easy-import

consistency-check -  check whether all your ports are installed properly,
                     what files have changed, and what new files there are

getpr   - downloads a problem report from GNATS and attempts to extract
          the patch, shar, uuencoded file from it.
          this probably needs to be checked for potential security problems.
prpatch - just does `patch $1 < pr-patch' (pr-patch is created by getpr)
prdone  - checks in the port, attempting to fill out the commit message using
          information from the problem report and then takes you into edit-pr
          so you don't forget to close the PR.

----------------------------------------------------------------------

consistency-check gives output like:

Not on filesystem - jade from jade-1.2.1
Only on filesystem - jadefoo
No package md5 available for lessecho
File nsgmls owned by multiple packages sp-1.3.4,jade-1.2.1
No filesystem md5 available for setuser, but it exists                          
For sgmlnorm, package md5 312d7b63d591e07629e0da4ae4a0ac07 is DIFFERENT from fs md5 of 19f1f901911b90d8e04c6ea69e1b0541!

change $do_md5 to 0 to not check md5, and $do_fs to 0 to not check for
files above those installed by packages.

----------------------------------------------------------------------

getpr, prpatch and prdone are used as so:
    % cd /usr/ports/CATEGORY/PORT
    % getpr PRNUMBER
    <read diff presented to you>
    <check that there are no followups to the PR as getpr wont' split
     them out of the PR>
    % prpatch
    <test port>
    % prdone PRNUMBER ci
    <this will attempt to fill out the cvs log message, check in the
     port and edit-pr the problem report so you can close it>

NOTE: These scripts need work and are *NOT* safe to use unless you know
      what they do.  Use at your own risk.  Patches would be great, but
      I'd prefer they pass through me.

----------------------------------------------------------------------

checksum is a script that allows checking of ports to see if their checksums
match, and if they don't, give a diff against the older version to try and
discover why the checksum didn't match.
