What should "cvs diff" produce? Afaics nothing is done. I'm also not sure 
what to do with send-pr. I'm not able to select /usr/pkgsrc/mail/alpine or 
something.

I installed devel/git and got the sources. It created pkgsrc/wip, but what 
to do next? The site doesn't tell how to upload a diff or how to upload 
the changes made to /usr/pkgsrc/<category>/<pkgname>.

Sorry for the newbie-ish questions.
