We can go with something like 'macports-buildstatistics' for repo name.
If it would be a branch under /macports-base then 'gsoc18-buildstatistics'.

Although having another repository under /macports makes more sense, since
the project would be unrelated to what macports-base does.

I believe the PortMgr would be able to create the repository for us ?
I don't have the
sufficient permission to create repo under /macports is what GitHub tells me.

As for commit rights, I had sent out an email on 26 April for getting
@macports id for Vishnu.

Vishnu,
Could you please search for 'Request for macports id for GSoC 2018 student'
thread in your mailbox and reply with your preference for the username ?

Having separate branches for testing and playing around sounds good to me.
We can then cherry pick the commits and have reviewed code on master.
