Comment (by sierkb):

 BTW:

 The port file referrs with ''livecheck.url
 https://api.textmate.org/releases/release/version'' to the (outdated?)
 textmate website, which indeed says: 2.0-rc.4, so the port's version of
 textmate sticks to date to that version.
 But: the textmate project's upstream info on its GitHub repository on
 https://github.com/textmate/textmate/releases says other: latest upstream
 release version obviously is not RC4 (release date: 18 Nov 2016) but at
 least RC7 (release date: 5 Dec 2016). Or further, since there is active
 code commitment every now and then in the master branch (see
 https://github.com/textmate/textmate/commits/master, the latest commit is
 only 11 days ago from today).

 Should the MacPort's port of textmate not point to at least that RC7
 version code (or maybe better to master, which seems indeed very alive)
 rather than sticking to the obviously obsolete RC4 (for whatever reason
 that version has been left on
 https://api.textmate.org/releases/release/version instead of reflecting
 the actual state as its repository on GitHub)?
