Description ykla 2022-11-15 22:01:50 UTC
Now package or port ponit to git.freebsd,org in FreeBSD documentation. such as package:korean/ibus-hangul[] will link to https://cgit.freebsd.org/ports/tree/korean/ibus-hangul/pkg-descr. It makes no sense, many people can't read the source code or the port doesn't have a pkg-descr, only a makefile. The link to freshports.org is more helpful for people to find out more about the package.It's inconvenient to change it to git now, so I'm asking to change it back.

Freshports is not an official part of the FreeBSD Project.
When the new official FreeBSD application portal is listed we will switch from git to the new portal.

I close the ticket, thanks for the suggestion.
