https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=3D254856 Bug ID: 254856 Summary: base system cannot pull/update official src or ports repos, lacks git client Product: Base System Version: 13.0-STABLE Hardware: Any OS: Any Status: New Severity: Affects Some People Priority: --- Component: bin Assignee: bugs@FreeBSD.org Reporter: m.bueker@berlin.de The base system provides no means of pulling or updating src or the ports t= ree from the official git repos. To get a copy of the official src or ports tree, currently a git client mus= t be installed as pre-compiled package (if available on the given arch), or comp= iled from a (potentially outdated) ports tree obtained by other means (such as portsnap). Providing a git client in base would obviate the need to either download the pkg database and install a package, or somehow obtain a ports tree copy to compile a git client in order to have an up-to-date src or ports tree. --=20 You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.=
