------------------------+-----------------
 Anyone creating new ports or upgrading existing ones has probably had the
 experience of discovering when activating the port that certain of its
 files are already provided by another port s/he has installed.

 This script aims to help with this, allowing to compile a list of all such
 files and the port(s) providing them after destroot'ing the port but
 before actually installing it. It can do the same thing with a destroot-
 equivalent of a project that hasn't yet been port'ified, and has a `-v`
 argument to inverse the logic and report new files.

 I find the script especially useful for large ports containing hundreds
 (or even thousands) of files.
