I am currently using: https://gitorious.org/freebsd/freebsd (I use this for /usr/src) https://github.com/freebsd/freebsd-ports (for ports, obviously) I just check them out from git, make local modifications in a separate branch, and keep rebasing this branch with the above. Now as an aside, I don't know how other people experience the way FreeBSD is organised but how it all comes across to me is comparable to these pictures: http://is.gd/7xhMU7 It would probably be a good idea to use 2013 for a lot of cleaning up, or is this a silly suggestion? I hope I am not sounding too facetious, I've only been using FreeBSD for about a year and a half. In that time I did find that a lot of information is relatively obscure (for example, there is a ton of good info in Makefiles and mk files) but this info is not always consistent. And sometimes pretty hard to find. Pleasant new year everyone, Markhome | help
