Procedure 4.2. Subversion Method

 ?????? Check out a copy of the ports tree:

 ?????? # svn checkout https://svn.FreeBSD.org/ports/head /usr/ports

To work the URL must be changed; drop the 'https' and use 'svn' instead. 
The correct command is thus:

 ?????? # svn checkout svn://svn.FreeBSD.org/ports/head /usr/ports
