Repology now supports extracting information on patches from repositories which make it available, with intent to provide aggregated list of patches to upstream and maintainers. If possible, it would be nice to have a list of patches in ravenports 'repology.json. The expected format would be a list of paths relative to the port directory (or to patches/ if they always reside there).

Package building logs are now supported too. Not sure if binary packages are built for ravenports, but if logs are available these could be of use too.

Log links added, thanks!

then the link would be broken since the log wouldn't exist

That's fine, there's linkchecker which would mark missing logs.

Repology currently only processed single variant. Will process all of them at some point, which would lead to gathering all the logs.

I missed this before. That's a great idea. But is this actually happening?
Would you report the comments in the patch headers?
pkgsrc mandates comments but we never have, but I might start if upstream is getting them. And I would be included to include this information. Until now I didn't see the point.

Yes, https://repology.org/project/firefox/information#Patches

No.

oh I see. it's up to upstream to check existing patches on the repology page (so passive notification rather than active).
Let me think about it.
