            Bug ID: 255215
           Summary: SVNWEB no longer updated for ports
           Product: Documentation
           Version: Latest
          Hardware: Any
                OS: Any
            Status: New
          Severity: Affects Many People
          Priority: ---
         Component: Website
          Assignee: doc at FreeBSD.org
          Reporter: se at FreeBSD.org

After the switch to GIT, the ports SVN repository is in a frozen state.

This causes accesses to https://svnweb.freebsd.org/ports/head/ to return 
stale information.

But the real issue IMHO is that the "FreeBSD Ports Search" page on the
web server does return 404 errors for ports that have been created in
GIT and did not exist in SVN.

Reproduce by e.g.:

https://www.freebsd.org/cgi/ports.cgi?query=yaze-ag&stype=name

and then click on any of the links (e.g. "Description").

This returns an error page with status 404:

https://svnweb.freebsd.org/ports/head/emulators/yaze-ag

The correct, new URL is:

https://cgit.freebsd.org/ports/tree/emulators/yaze-ag

FIX:

Somebody needs to apply the following changes to ports.cgi:

Hostname: replace "svnweb" with "cgit"
Path:     replace "ports/head" with "ports/tree"
