sync-uri = https://github.com/hhfeuer/Gentoo-Gnome-3.28-X.git

Then run emerge --sync
Add via layman:

As of Version 3.28, nautilus has dropped support for Desktop Icons. To get them back either use package.mask
>=gnome-base/nautilus-3.28.1
>=gnome-extra/gnome-user-share-3.28.0
to stay on nautilus-3.26.x or use the experimental gnome-shell plugin at:
https://gitlab.gnome.org/csoriano/org.gnome.desktop-icons
Another possiblity would be using nemo from the Cinnamon desktop which is a natilus fork.
gnome-tweak-tool has been renamed to gnome-tweaks, so the ebuild contains a block. You will have to unmerge gnome-tweak-tool prior to upgrading.
