I'd suggest that you search this mail-list for "Re: I run poudriere - what do I need to do once ports switch over to git?" Though it is not something we use. This may help https://wiki.freebsd.org/git specifically https://github.com/lwhsu/freebsd-git-docs/blob/main/URLs.md The reason(s) for moving to git are described here https://github.com/bsdimp/freebsd-git-docs/ I've also found Ed Maste's email "Proposed ports git transition schedule" helpful. > My apologies if I've missed this in the discussion or referenced docs > and thanks for any guidance or pointers. > > Simon Wright. > _______________________________________________ > freebsd-ports@freebsd.org mailing list > https://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-ports > To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-ports-unsubscribe@freebsd.org"
