I have several local ports, to set up which I found the following
useful:

1. Vivek Khera, `Making a local branch of the ports tree',
http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-ports/2007-April/040366.html

2. Randy Pratt, `Creating a custom ports tree',
http://myfreebsd.homeunix.net/hints_n_kinks/localportstree.html

Raghu.
