Ports should never build from tip of trunk or HEAD or similar
concepts.....
These do.
But that's not reproducible, and I thought we always wanted that. If
I install a specific version of a port today, I should get the same
software if I install that same version of that port tomorrow. By
fetching from HEAD, you break that assumption.
This is why I've thought we should not support CVS/SVN fetching in any
form -- No checksums, no guaranteed reproducibility._______________________________________________
