update gmt4 to 4.5.17

[fvaccari]

Would it be possible to update gmt4 to version 4.5.17? Currently available version in MacPorts is 4.5.15, and has a serious issue with pscontour, already reported to gmt developers and corrected by them in 4.5.17.

Thanks

Franco

FYI, you may find that the update happens quicker if you submit a GitHub pull request for the needed change to the Portfile.

Wasn't aware of the pull request way. Spent half a day to make a proper one, hope didn't make too many formal mistakes...

That's against your personal repository. You have to make the pull against the Macports repository. See wiki:WorkingWithGit.

That wiki entry is describing git operations through Terminal, but I acted through the Web Interface. There was still a green button to be pushed there, and I think I've now completed the pull request choosing the "Rebase and commit" option, that I've read somewhere was the preferred one. It now says

Pull request successfully merged and closed
You’re all set—the fvaccari-patch-1 branch can be safely deleted.

I hope I did it right...

You have merged it with your personal repository. That has nothing to do with the Macports one.

fvaccari, go to the macports repo and click on "new pull request": ​https://github.com/macports/macports-ports

[fvaccari]

Eh, ​https://github.com/macports/macports-ports is where I started from... I thought I did it, but apparently it's not the case. I had the best intentions to give back to MacPorts with this first (insignificant) contribution, but it looks like it's already beyond my capabilities. Will try to learn more, in due time.
