Procedure 4.2. Subversion Method

?????? Check out a copy of the ports tree:

?????? # svn checkout https://svn.FreeBSD.org/ports/head /usr/ports

To work the URL must be changed; drop the 'https' and use 'svn'
instead. The correct command is thus:

?????? # svn checkout svn://svn.FreeBSD.org/ports/head /usr/ports
Why do you think https doesn't work? I would expect it to work at least
as reliably as svn.

When issuing the command:

 # svn checkout https://svn.FreeBSD.org/ports/head /usr/ports

returns the following:

svn: E170013: Unable to connect to a repository at URL
'https://svn.freebsd.org/ports/head'

svn: E000065: Error running context: No route to host

The only way to get it to work on my FreeBSD-12 machine is to correct
the URL, as per my original message. Maybe give it a try and see how
it works for you.

Are you able to do a checkout without having it checked out to /usr/ports?

I tried this on a non-FreeBSD machine, and it worked as is.
