How do you migrate from rsync to git for 'emerge --sync'? I changed my /etc/porttage/repos.conf/gentoo.conf file as shown in various places, but when I try to do a sync, git barfs:
# emerge --sync >>> Syncing repository 'gentoo' into '/usr/portage'... /usr/bin/git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/gentoo-mirror/gentoo.git . fatal: destination path '.' already exists and is not an empty directory. !!! git clone error in /usr/portage Despite what multiple blog and wiki pages claim, it seems it's not as simple as editing you gentoo.conf file. Do I need to wipe the contents of /usr/portage and start with an emptry directory there?
