Rename from devel/git-arc to indicate that more tools from src/tools/tools/git/ may be included. The only additional tool for now is mfc-candidates, which, as the name suggests, is a tool to find MFC candidates. Under a ports tree, mfc-candidates finds commits to merge to quarterly.

The git-arc utility creates and manages FreeBSD Phabricator reviews
|
|
based on git commits. It is a git plugin that provides a wrapper around
|
|
arc.
|
|
|
|
The arc command has a few limitations that make it awkward for FreeBSD
|
|
development:
|
|
|
|
- Arcanist uses its own commit log template with a format does not match
|
|
FreeBSD's template.
|
|
|
|
- Arcanist presumes a model where all the commits in a development
|
|
branch are uploaded for review as a single Differential revision.
|
|
When working on a feature branch with multiple commits, it is usually
|
|
more efficient to review each commit individually.
|
|
|
|
git-arc mitigates these limitations.
