pkgdev provides a collection of tools for Gentoo development including:
pkgdev commit: commit to an ebuild repository
pkgdev manifest: update package manifests
pkgdev mask: mask packages
pkgdev push: scan commits for QA issues before pushing upstream
pkgdev showkw: show package keywords
pkgdev is developed alongside pkgcheck, pkgcore, and snakeoil. Running pkgdev from git will often require them from git as well.
