Anything that can convince someone with commit rights to review it and
commit it :)
We are slightly understaffed.

It often helps to ask on the mailing list or on the IRC channel.

I don't know if comment to the pull request will help or not. (Some
people opt out from receiving emails anyway.)

Or collect a sufficient number of good contributions that you get commit rights.

A couple of days. In case of maintained ports it makes sense to ask
after 72 hours when anyone is allowed commit changes.

This is about a maintained port. Nobody is supposed to modify the port
within 72 hours after notifying the maintainer, but if maintainer
doesn't react, it can be committed by anyone with commit rights after
three days.
