Comment(by cal@…):

 I wanted to commit the Portfile with the following changes:
  - Added standard modeline
  - Used the github portgroup and github.setup instead of specifying the
 fetch form github manually
  - `path:`-style dependencies don't need `${prefix}`
  - Changed github username to `rose-compiler`, since this apparently is
 the new home of rose
  - Added checksums, since the github portgroup downloads a tar.gz
  - Changed default compiler to gcc45, since that currently is our favorite
 gcc compiler

 However, the build failed with:
 {{{

 I'm attaching `config.log` and my modified Portfile. Note that since I use
 the github portgroup the sources are in fact not being fetched via git,
 but downloaded as a tarball and do not contain a complete git history.
 Maybe rose requires to be built from a git repository? Can this
 requirement be lifted by providing the `VERSION` file?
