I'm interested in a consistent ports tree for build purposes. I want updates, but I want the tree to be consistent enough to build. In the past I have sync'd at less than ideal times and things did not build as a result. I understand this is always a possibility, but was wondering if there was a time when it was most likely consistent. For example, is a weekly build done on the ports tree starting at a particular day and time? Daily?
