It turns out that the last 2 are links on that page and the links expand out to: https://cgit.freebsd.org/src/anongit_at_git.FreeBSD.org:src.git and: https://cgit.freebsd.org/src/git_at_gitrepo.FreeBSD.org:src.git So it seems that there are ways to clone that involve referencing cgit.freebsd.org . > The last two are not explicit about notation like ssh: prefixes. > > I cloned FreeBSD's src.git via: > > git clone -o freebsd --config remote.freebsd.fetch='+refs/notes/*:refs/notes/*' ssh://anongit_at_git.freebsd.org/src.git freebsd-src > > Other than using the ssh: style, I got the command notation from > part of: > > https://github.com/bsdimp/freebsd-git-docs/blob/main/src-cvt.md > > The remote.freebsd.fetch related material allows for finding the svn version > numbers for the older content. > > Checking out stable/12 from the clone should be possible after the above, but > that is not what I've been doing. > === Mark Millard marklmi at yahoo.com ( dsl-only.net went away in early 2018-Mar)Received on Tue Dec 22 2020 - 20:51:03 UTC
