That depends on (among other things): * what (sequence of) branches you intend to use (quarterly? HEAD (main)?); * how you maintain your local ports tree (if it's a git repo, I would expect you would have no need to remove it -- just "git pull", possibly with an occasional (quarterly) "git checkout ${current_quarterly_branch}"). I am not an expert in git, so there are likely "interesting" (and possibly even useful) variations on that theme. > Also, I guess origin/2023Q4 is where developers make updates to? No; the quarterly branches only get critical fixes (IIRC). "main" (aka "HEAD") is where normal, day-to-day changes are made. It (main) can thus be a bit turbulent at times.
