When I look at:

https://github.com/freebsd/freebsd-ports/

and look at the popup for selecting a branch
I see a "main" but do not see a "master".

By contrast when I look at:

https://github.com/freebsd/freebsd-ports-legacy/

and look at the popup for selecting a branch
I see a "master" but do not see a "main".

It looks like the your gitup is configured for
before the conversion, when only the combination:

/freebsd/freebsd-ports.git
refs/heads/master

existed. Since then the old /freebsd/freebsd-ports.git
was effectively renamed to /freebsd/freebsd-ports-legacy/
and a new /freebsd/freebsd-ports/ was created that used
"main" instead of "master".
