Magit is an interface to the version control system Git, implemented
as an Emacs extension.
Unlike Emacs' native Version Control package which strives to provide
a unified interface to various version control systems, Magit only
supports Git and can therefore better take advantage of its native
features.
===> The following configuration options are available for magit-4.7.1:
DOCS=on: Build and/or install documentation
PDF=off: Build and install PDF document
===> Use 'make config' to modify these settings
devel/magit: Update to 4.7.0
- Track upstream's replacement of docs/RelNotes/ with
per-major-release docs/CHANGELOG.N files in PORTDOCS and the DOCS
install
- Fix the DOCS and PDF options. With the custom do-build target,
DOCS_ALL_TARGET/PDF_ALL_TARGET never ran, so the HTML and PDF
manuals were never built and staging failed. Build them explicitly
in post-build-DOCS-on/post-build-PDF-on, under MAKE_ENV so the
sed=gsed binary alias is on PATH.

Emacs Lisp ports framework: Overhaul
This overhaul introduces four key changes to the elisp ports framework:
1. Remove support for packaged byte-compiled elisp.
The primary motivation is to remove a large number of flavor-specific
packages and to simplify the ports tree. As an example, supporting
byte-compiled elisp for devel/tablist required six packages, one for
each flavor of editors/emacs and editors/emacs-devel. With over 100
elisp ports and requests for new Emacs flavors, this was
unmanageable.
2. Install configuration to integrate with Emacs's native compilation
machinery, allowing elisp from ports to be compiled into the standard

*/*: Return to pool
I'll be away from keyboard soon and am not sure if I will return. So
return all ports that I currently maintain to pool hoping new
volunteers take care of them.
devel/magit*: Add upstream patch to fix warning message
With recent Emacs 31 following warning message is displayed when
evaluating "(require 'magit)"
Warning (files): Missing ‘lexical-binding’ cookie in
"/usr/local/share/emacs/31.0.50/site-lisp/magit/magit-version.el".
So add upstream patch to fix it.
While here, tidy up Makefile with portfmt.
Chase major version update of editors/emacs-devel
Bump PORTREVISION of most USES=emacs ports after editors/emacs-devel
major version increased from 30 to 31.

Chase editors/emacs update to 29.4
- Bump Emacs version in Mk/Uses/emacs.mk to update version-specific
paths
- Bump PORTREVISION of ports with USES=emacs. This is required for two
reasons. Emacs lisp files need to be byte compiled for the new Emacs
version, and files installed under, e.g., EMACS_VERSION_SITE_LISPDIR
need to be relocated.

*/*: Fix build when PDF option is enabled
When PDF option is enabled PDF file is generated from Texinfo source
file with texi2pdf, and the command is invoked with '--clear'
option. When the command is invoked with the option, however, it
returns non-zero value even if conversion is (or, at least seems to
be) successful. As a result build of ports fails when the option is
enabled. The command returns zero value if it is invoked without the
option. So fix build by patching Makefile of source tree.
While I'm here, replace CONFLICTS in devel/{forge,forge-devel/Makefile
with CONFLICTS_INSTALL as neither of them interfere with build of the
other.

* Add new options PGTK, SQLITE3, TREESITTER and WEBP. SQLITE3 and

Mk/**tex.mk: Convert bsd.tex.mk to USES=tex
- Update all the consumers to use USES=tex
- USE_TEX=yes is the old way of writing USES=tex which has been removed
and replaced in all ports
- Almost all of the USE_TEX features remains unchanged
- Some consumers had the same variables defined both in the mk
infrastructure and also in the ports which have been removed from the
ports as those are redundant.
In case any of the consumers are failing to build please make sure that
the nexessary USES=tex is there. Unlike previous USE_TEX=yes will no
longer load the required VARS for tex and related dependencies.

Remove WWW entries moved into port Makefiles
Commit b7f05445c00f has added WWW entries to port Makefiles based on

Add WWW entries to port Makefiles
It has been common practice to have one or more URLs at the end of the
ports' pkg-descr files, one per line and prefixed with "WWW:". These
URLs should point at a project website or other relevant resources.
Access to these URLs required processing of the pkg-descr files, and
they have often become stale over time. If more than one such URL was
present in a pkg-descr file, only the first one was tarnsfered into
the port INDEX, but for many ports only the last line did contain the
port specific URL to further information.
There have been several proposals to make a project URL available as
a macro in the ports' Makefiles, over time.

Enable subversion support by default and remove git-subversion.
Without PROVIDES/REQUIRES support, ports must depend on exactly one git
port/pkg. Subversion is currently FreeBSD's primiary version control
system and it is widely used with git so it makes sense to enable it by
default and provide a consistent user experience.

Install texinfo files (GNU info) into ${PREFIX}/share/info
After a discussion on the mailing list on moving manpages to
${PREFIX}/share/man for consistency with base where it is
installed in usr/share/man, it appeared the same should happen
to GNU info files which were installed under share in base and
not in ports.
Now texinfo is not in base on any of the supported version of FreeBSD
it is possible to proceed to this move and it is easier to do than
the manpage change.
Other benefit than consistency are less patching: all build tools but
cmake are expecting info files to be under share/info and cmake (patched here)
was having an exception for BSD so the patch makes FreeBSD case less
specific for them
