This does not answer the question you asked, but it may at least
approximate such an answer.

I had not yet got around to reclaiming the space for my private local
mirror of the ports svn repo, which I had been updating nightly; a qick
check shows it to be:

g1-55(12.2-S)[4] du -hs svn/freebsd//ports
4.5G    svn/freebsd//ports

Peace,

The same folks who champion the "rights" of corporations to influence
elections by money (as an exercise of free speech) are now also decrying
corporations' speaking out against voter suppression laws...?  Right.
