The Libreoffice homepages seem wrong. dev and test do not show a homepage for arabic/libreoffice, but stage and prod do. Could this be a commit which corrected something after dev and test were corrected? I think so. I think this commit did that. Let’s check from the command line. I’m doing this in my empty

By “post correction”, I meant “post-correction script”, i.e. after the correction script completed. A recent commit started the process of moving the WWW from pkg-descr to Makefile. These were huge commits, about 27930 ports each. FreshPorts is dumb. It sees a commit and it refreshes all ports touched by that commit. Refreshing every port takes

Today I learned, or at best, relearned, a new make target: root@freshports:/usr/ports/sysutils/anvil # make create-manifest root@freshports:/usr/ports/sysutils/anvil # ls -lt | head total 14 drwxr-xr-x 3 root wheel 3 Sep 10 17:26 work -rw-r–r– 1 root wheel 337 Sep 10 16:06 pkg-descr -rw-r–r– 1 root wheel 182 Sep 10 16:06 distinfo -rw-r–r– 1 root wheel 1050

The July 4th tweet announced “dev, test, and stage .freshports.org are now running Python 3.9”. Three days later, “Is it coincidental that dev, test, and stage are all stuck on commits from July 4?” I took notes as I explored the problem. The first clue was: 2022.07.07 00:12:03 git-delta.sh /usr/local/libexec/freshports/git-to-freshports-xml.py –repo ports –path /var/db/ingress/repos/ports –branch

This is the first of a series of posts which provide sample queries. Sometimes you need a starting point. This particular query will be used for showing the recent commits on a branch. WITH branch_commits AS ( SELECT distinct CL.id, CL.commit_DATE FROM commit_log CL JOIN commit_log_ports CLP on CL.id = CLP.commit_log_id JOIN commit_log_branches CLB ON

I was asked: Why does FreshPorts have links to both git and subversion repos? The short answer is: because at the time, the commits were committed to those respective repos. The links to the other repo do not exist. FreeBSD moved from using subversion to git. During the transition, the subversion repo became read-only. All

Right now, we have have: dev.freshports.org devgit.freshports.org test.freshports.org testgit.freshports.org stage.freshports.org stagegit.freshports.org The goal: three hosts: dev, test, stage. I’ll delete the existing: dev, test, stage I’ll rename: devgit -> dev testgit -> test stagegit -> stage I think this will be easier than moving content from one jail to another. Each of the three renamed

Ports come and go. Sometimes they come back. Take a recent commit on 1 July against editors/ved (and others). This port was created on 01 Jan 2001 and removed on 15 May 2014 because it used the deprecated smake. The 1 July 2021 commit brought it back. There was a problem. Here is the page

This outlines the steps for putting the new git-delta.sh script into use. These steps will be required on each ingress node. stop ingress commit processing Look at the output of sudo tail /var/log/freshports/git.log and you should see something like this: [dan@devgit-ingress01:~] $ sudo tail /var/log/freshports/git.log 2021.06.27 17:21:05 git-delta.sh Repodir is /var/db/ingress/repos/src 2021.06.27 17:21:05 git-delta.sh Running:
