Comment (by kencu):
I find your best bet is to sudo copy the original Portfile in it's
original location to `Portfile.orig`, make your edits to `Portfile`, and
then diff them with `diff -u Portfile.orig Portfile >
~/Desktop/somename.diff`
Or go the github way instead, if you're going to do this at all
frequently.
