CTM was originally "CVS Through eMail", but has since changed scope to be
much more general.
CTM is now meant to be the definitive way to make and apply a delta between
two versions of a directory tree.
There are two parts to this, making the delta and applying it. These are two
entirely different things. CTM concentrates the computation-burden on the
generation of the deltas, as a delta very often is applied more times than
it is made. Second CTM tries to make the minimal size delta.
===> The following configuration options are available for ctm-2.0_5:
DOCS=on: Build and/or install documentation
===> Use 'make config' to modify these settings
misc/ctm: fix build warnings, add symlink and filename encoding support
Fix compiler warnings in mkctm.c, resolve logf name clash, fix change
counting, and add symlink handling needed for src-13/14 deltas.
Also add filename encoding for paths with special characters and
ownermail support for ctm_smail.

Remove WWW entries moved into port Makefiles
Commit b7f05445c00f has added WWW entries to port Makefiles based on
WWW: lines in pkg-descr files.
This commit removes the WWW: lines of moved-over URLs from these
pkg-descr files.

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.

Apply changes developed by Stephen Montgomery-Smith and required to
actually use CTM to distribute FreeBSD updates. They have been further
refined by Julian H. Stacey.
These changes add support for delta numbers with more than 5 digits
and better compression formats.

Track move of the Github repo from bsdimp/ctm to freebsd/ctm.
The port revision has not been bumped since the package is unchanged
except for the URL to the repository in the package description, and no
official packages with the old URL have been made available, yet.

Add URL of the Github repository that contains the ctm sources and the
upgrade history preserved from the sources in FreeBSD base.

Add new port misc/ctm.
This port is a slightly modified version of the port as distributed with
FreeBSD up to version 12. The port install man pages in section 8 instead
of section 1, since all binaries are installed in sbin.
