Re: HEADS UP: FreeBSD src repo transitioning to git this weekend

 
I tried cloning with the following result:
[root_at_STING /home/filippo]# git clone -o freebsd -b main https://git.freebsd.org/src.git /usr/src
Cloning into '/usr/src'...
fatal: repository 'https://git.freebsd.org/src.git/' not found

Should I wait past the weekend to clone?Filippo
