Quarterly port problems.

[chrcol]

Is anyone else having problems?

I changed my script to use https://git.freebsd.org/ports.git a couple of months ago as https://cgit.freebsd.org/ports wasnt working, but now it seems to have switched back to https://cgit.freebsd.org/ports, however 2021Q4 doesnt exist.

The page even has a link to https://git.freebsd.org/ports.git which is 404.

Huh? The canonical name is https://git.freebsd.org/ports.git and this never changed. Maybe https://git.freebsd.org/ports would work as well (I never tried), but anything starting with cgit is the web frontend and not meant to be used with git tools.

The new quarterly branch wasn't created yet. This has nothing to do with the repo's url.

So the quarterly branch is not created when the calendar changes to new quarter?

 

[zirias@]

branching off a new quarterly branch from main is a manual task, so, no.

… The branching isn't done automatically.

A new quarterly is always branched off from main aka latest.

New 2021Q4 branch

… a link to https://git.freebsd.org/ports.git which is 404.

FreeBSD bug 258890 – Consider a web redirect for the cgit page link to https://git.freebsd.org/ports.git

… 404.

Fixed by lwhsu@. Thanks again for the reminder.
