Would appreciate if anyone can provide insight as to the 4 git
commands that I need to function, in a manner similar to the way I
use svnlite use.  Git equivalents for:

svnlite update /usr/ports
svnlite update -r '{$YYYY-$MM-$DD}' /usr/ports/$category/$port
svnlite log -l $N /usr/ports/$category/$port
svnlite diff /usr/ports/$category/$port

I got a partial answer. There is a port, net/gitup, that will do an
update of sorts. (Note: I was just told 'gitup' and there is an old
port, now renamed 'git-up', which is not the right one).

I'm sure many other users would have a similar usage (and similar
non-knowledge of git)

Indeed. I feel this should have been done in advance. And been in
Appendix A of the Handbook in plenty of time.

As a minor aside, has anyone stated the reason why the user-base of
base or ports are moving to git?

Going with the fashion, IMO. But I will no doubt get shouted down.


If it is deprecated where do I find the information I need, this does not help:
