I run a home/office server, mainly for my own personal/business use, I need to do little server admin but do regularly update.
portsnap is obviously not playing ball at the moment; I've looked through the "Ports transitioned to git." thread a few times (also performed many google searches like: "how to update freebsd via git") and installed gitup but
doesn't help.
Apologies if I'm missing the bleedin' obvious but I just have no idea what to do to update my ports now; the Handbook hasn't been updated and all the git transition talk is a bit "wood for the trees" territory for me; I've never used git and am rather lost >_< This is the sort of thing that I should breeze through but... aaaarg!
Whaddoido? I appreciate that patience might be the immediate answer and that all will be documented in time.
Many thanks.
