Welcome to FreeBSD!

The problem with your request is that people who don't want pulseaudio
on their systems end up getting it (and any dependencies) anyway.

Personally, I won't let it near any of my systems (but I use ports rather
than pkg, so that's moot)

However, there is a solution, and you don't need to make your own
repository - simply make a package for mpv:

cd /usr/ports/multimedia/mpv
make package

Set the options how you want them, and it will build a package file
that you can add on every machine using "pkg add"

(see "man ports" for more information)

Does this help?
