I use two overlays: 

[1] for sccache-overlay to speed up those ports requiring rust to build
[2] to maintain the last-known-good php74 for systems that can't be
updated to a supported php version for $REASONS

For systems that require [2], they need ports building in a tree that
doesn't have the MOVED file, so it uses a different 'default' tree which
has 'git rm MOVED' run on it after it updates but before poudriere bulk
runs.
