Description Sebastian Schulze Struchtrup 2004-07-22 12:30:18 UTC 
devel/arch and devel/tla are both ports for the gnu arch rcs.
devel/arch is quite old, but devel/tla seems to be up to date.
The command line interface of devel/arch is different, so it is probably desired to keep both of them in the tree.
I heard of gnu arch, and installed the port, but it was the old one which was inconsistent to the documentation.
Please correct me if I am mixing something up or if I misunderstood something.

Fix: 

Probably the devel/arch port should be removed or a hint should be placed into the pkg-descr (pointing out that this is an old version). The current situation is somewhat confusing.

wjv has been idle for over 16 months; return his PRs to the pool 
(hat == bugmeister).
