OK, I see how I might be able to use that output, I can see which =
branches have new commits.

That output might also be useful for knowing what ports are affected, =
but really, this is what brings everything in.

'24a927a0ef5d' is taken from the 'git fetch' output but would also be =
the LAST_COMMIT for this branch.

Next, I tried a tag, but went over to the freebsd source repo, because =
it has more recent commits.

After the last commit is processed, this gets done:

$ git tag freshports_last_commit
fatal: tag 'freshports_last_commit' already exists

Oops:

$ git tag -f freshports_last_commit
Updated tag 'freshports_last_commit' (was 4a90ed0de4e)

A compromise might be just logging the last commit somewhere so it can =
be derived easily if all is lost.

Mind you, this might be the same thing.

SELECT hash FROM commit_log order by id desc limit 1

.. assuming everything gets inserted into the database in the correct =
order.

That might work.  Just go back a few dozens commits and use that value.  =
If we reprocess commits, no bit deal.  They get ignored if already in =
the database.
