```
git checkout -b pr-740
curl -O https://patch-diff.githubusercontent.com/raw/macports/macports-ports/pull/740.patch
vim 740.patch
# ^ remove the conflicting file (diff --git a/aqua/qt4-mac/Portfile ...
# until the next diff --git ...)
git am 740.patch
curl -o aqua/qt4-mac/Portfile https://raw.githubusercontent.com/devernay/macports-ports/8324db7c8b3452e453ce859d2137ae1ae6a76743/aqua/qt4-mac/Portfile
# ^ URL from https://github.com/macports/macports-ports/pull/740/files ("View" button on the right)
git add aqua/qt4-mac/Portfile
git commit --amend --no-edit
git push -f git at github.com:devernay/macports-ports.git pr-740:qt4-mac-tiger
```

I'm using a shallow clone so I can't push to an outdated branch, but it
should work for you.
