Yes. I just can't imagine any generic port tests that can't be automated
and coded into the script once and for good.
Ideal system should be like github with the added automated testing
between pull request submission and merge. It should either fail and notify
the submitter, or succeed and notify the committers.

Git hup (or *ANY* remote service for that matter) is a no go IMO

You just don't get it.

Again, you just really, really, don't get it.

You WANT a gateway to a remote service that the project does not have to handle.

Why?  Because then we offload the problem to another org.

The FreeBSD project should be about innovation in OS design, platform and software. Ops work is bunk and just slows us down.

The more we can outsource the better we'll be. (and what if that service blows up? well we move on! it's simple!)

Continuing to insist that we run the services ourselves it just wasting our limited resources. Not only that but we get emotionally attached to technologies that are old, dying and dead when off the shelf stuff works just fine.
