In the future, please attach a unified diff of the changes you would like committed, then we can evaluate and commit them. (Either the reporter can provide a diff, which the maintainer can then test and verify, or the reporter can just request a change and leave it to the maintainer to make the change and supply the diff).

There are many nuances to portfile development that we want to ensure our contributors understand before they are given write access to the entire repository. Alessandro is the maintainer of only this port, and since less than a month, so granting commit access would be premature at this point.
