I am working on converting the portsnap build infrastructure to use
git rather than subversion. I do not yet have an ETA.

Is portsnap still going to be supported?

I was noticing my local ports tree (which autoupdates every night with 
portsnap) was looking pretty dated, so I started googling and found talk on the 
forums that portsnap was going away (this was late 2020) and folks were 
suggesting svnlite and fetching updates via svn. Based on that, I just nuked my 
ports tree and grabbed it again via git, which seems to have worked.

What’s odd is that looking at that wiki entry, this port should have been up to 
date if I was using portsnap:

https://www.freshports.org/multimedia/plexmediaserver-plexpass/ 


But portsnap kept insisting that I was up to date even though I was seeing 
version 1.21.3.4015…

Anyhow, if anyone can confirm portsnap status, I’d love to know what the 
official line is and whether I should expect to see it around for awhile.

Is the git transition impacting freebsd-update at all? etcupdate?

Thanks,

Charles

Portsnap no updates since 3/31/2021 ?

[Robert Blayzor via freebsd-stable]

I have several servers running 11.4 and 12.2 that do nightly portsnap 
updates and the last time they've seen anything new is 3/31/2021, since 
then, nothing.


This seems highly unusual since seems like there was always SOMETHING 
updated daily now nothing.
