Hello, The Handbook says "As needed, update /usr/ports after the initial Git checkout: # git -C /usr/ports pull" [root@frigg ~]# portversion -v | grep -c "<" [Reading data from pkg(8) ... - 294 packages found - done] 7 [root@frigg ~]# git -C /usr/ports pull [...] 855 files changed, 8990 insertions(+), 7435 deletions(-) [root@frigg ~]# portversion -v | grep -c "<" [Reading data from pkg(8) ... - 294 packages found - done] 7 However, you also need to 'make index' which the Handbook does not mention: [root@frigg /usr/ports]# make index [root@frigg /usr/ports]# portversion -v | grep -c "<" [Reading data from pkg(8) ... - 294 packages found - done] [Updating the portsdb <format:bdb_btree> in /usr/ports ... - 31205 port entries found .........1000.........2000.........3000.........4000.........5000.........6000.........7000.........8000.........9000.........10000.........11000.........12000.........13000.........14000.........15000.........16000.........17000.........18000.........19000.........20000.........21000.........22000.........23000.........24000.........25000.........26000.........27000.........28000.........29000.........30000.........31000.. ..... done] 12 -- Janos Dohanics
