GSOC 2019 project: Improvements of Buildbot views (@ MacPorts)

[Rajdeep Bharati]

Thanks for the feedback!

I had a doubt in buildbot:
When I install buildbot from source (github), then why is it showing
version 2.1.1dev... installed? Shouldn't it show the latest version
(2.3.0)? It is up to date with the master branch.

Thank you.
