Just as with Subversion. To speed it up, you could seed it with the latest generated version from rsync: rsync -vt rsync://rsync.macports.org/macports/release/ports/PortIndex_darwin_16_i386/PortIndex* $ports Just make sure you use the correct OS version in the rsync path. There is also no guarantee that this really matches the git ports tree, which might already contain newer Portfile changes.
