Enable the ident feature for *.ebuild files in git: $ cat ~/gentoo/.git/info/attributes *.ebuild ident Now re-checkout every ebuild you wanna track. $ git checkout -- ~/gentoo/www-client/seamonkey/seamonkey-2.40.ebuild Once you have done that those ebuilds will have some hash in the $Id$ field: $ grep '$Id' ~/gentoo/www-client/seamonkey/seamonkey-2.40.ebuild # $Id: 5ecd7709c6c8a316d9f005b4e4a0a54da81eb048 $ The same hash is in each corresponding ebuild in my personal overlay as well. Occasionally I run a script to compare ebuilds from my overlay with the one from the git tree. When the hash is different something in the gentoo ebuild has changed and I can decide if I want to apply these changes to ebuilds in my overlay as well. I hope this brief explanation is sufficient.
