• Ports A collection of portfiles specific to Atlas.

• Usage

1. Clone this repository to a path of your choosing. A good, known working directory is =/private/tmp=.
2. Edit your =/opt/local/etc/macports/sources.conf= file to include a link to the location of this repository on your disk.
   • As an example, if you had cloned this repository to =/var/local/ports= you would add a line above the default source in =sources.conf= with the following syntax: =file:///var/local/ports=
3. Within the ports tree (this repository) execute =portindex= to recreate the port tree index.
4. After setting up your new source, you will need to execute: =sudo port selfupdate= for MacPorts to update its sources.

Your set-up is now complete and you can install ports from this ports tree! When a port is not found in this ports tree, it will fallback to the default MacPorts official source.
