Hi.

Dropping freebsd-current ML as this doesn't related current (main) but
deprecated release (12.4).
Dropping freebsd-arm ML as I'm not subscribed and surely be bounced,
and the problem is ports specific.
Adding freebsd-ports ML as this is ports related.

Commented inline below.

Me too don't use portsnap, but if you want to switch to git, maybe
installing git from pkg (as 12.x is already EoL'ed, extract git.pkg
from disc1.iso for armv7, install it) and clone repo into
clean /usr/ports would be better not to poisoning by different metadata.
And check out the ports tree of which just befere 12.4 was obsoleted.
After that, ports tree starts dropping support for 12.x.

Additional note:
I myseld don't even tried, but for portsnap users who needs (forced)
to switch to git, net/gitup could be your friend.
IIUC, it would be something like csup for cvs or svnup for subversion.
