git in base would have licensing issues.

Pi2B: v1.1 (armv7 only)? v1.2 running armv7 FreeBSD?
v1.2 running arm64 FreeBSD?


It does appear that arm64 ports builds have started again, or are at
least being experimented with . . .

Filling the Built search field with "/git" at:

http://ampere2.nyi.freebsd.org/build.html?mastername=head-arm64-default&build=p557699_s368500

shows that devel/git built. The context looks to be:

FreeBSD head -r368500 was used to as the context the builds were for.
Ports head   -r557699 was the vintage of the ports tree build.
This is for head-arm64-default, not a quarterly build.

It also shows devel/git at lite as having been built --and
devel/git at gui and devel/git at tiny and devel/git-lfs and
so on.

The page also reports:

Queued	Built	Failed	Skipped	Ignored	Remaining
32987	28781	304	3106	796	0
Load Averages	Swapinfo	Elapsed	Pkg/Hour	Impulse
( 4%) 1.31 1.40 1.66	4.41%	142:17:22	205	--

It is the only modern arm64 build that I found with anywhere near 28781
ports built.

Looks like this is for well after head -r365692 .

Unfortunately, https://pkg-status.freebsd.org/builds?type=package does
not yet seem to include ampere2.nyi.freebsd.org based builds.
