I think it would be txz. I just browsed without downloading on ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/ That will lead you to where you can download either source tree (src.txz) or binary sets, your choice between 10.0-STABLE, 11-current, 10.0-RELEASE. For ports tree, I believe you can download with svnlite, included with FreeBSD >= 10.0, or portsnap. Both of these are part of the base system unless you specifically disable building them. Tom
