Description Stephen Hurd freebsd_committer freebsd_triage 2007-06-12 04:40:07 UTC
The "And/or patch file (100KB max):" file upload box in http://www.freebsd.org/send-pr.html will not allow attaching files which do not resolve to text/* mime types.  This includes .shar and .sh.  Since a sharchive is the recommended format for new port attachments as per http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/porters-handbook/porting-submitting.html

Fix: 

Do not restrict attachments by mime type.
How-To-Repeat: Attempt to attach a .shar or .sh file to a PR via http://www.freebsd.org/send-pr.html

State Changed
From-To: open->closed

Turning off mime type selection isn't really an option I like, so I just 
added application/shar to the list of acceptable ones.
