Comment(by lachlan.deck@…):

 Hi Ryan,
 I've added a clean version of maven3 portfile. It is formatted as you've
 (well) suggested and also uses pre/post destroot operations as it should.
 The maven2 port was fixing permissions on files that only existed in
 maven1 -- so that's been fixed.

 As far as providing an upgrade diff for the existing maven2 portfile I
 don't think that's a good thing(tm) to do. Various portfiles exist (e.g.,
 for various versions of mysql or postgres) that target a specific major
 release version of the target port and that is a good thing to continue
 with here as maven3 is a major upgrade from maven2.

 Besides which, maven3 is in beta and as such people will want to have both
 installed (as it is required by some other tools).

 As such the attached portfile targets bin/mvn3 rather than overwriting
 bin/mvn as the previously attached port was (wrongly) doing. i.e., if it's
 a new port it shouldn't interfere with existing port executables.

 I'm happy to watch for updates to maven3 and provide updated diffs as they
 are released.
