            Bug ID: 224893
           Summary: MASTER_SITE_INDEX should use HTTPS URL
           Product: Ports & Packages
           Version: Latest
          Hardware: Any
                OS: Any
            Status: New
          Severity: Affects Only Me
          Priority: ---
         Component: Ports Framework
          Assignee: portmgr at FreeBSD.org
          Reporter: wosch at FreeBSD.org
                CC: freebsd-ports-bugs at FreeBSD.org

The ports homepage is using HTTPS https://www.FreeBSD.org/ports/

in /usr/ports/Makefile is an outdated config for
MASTER_SITE_INDEX?=    http://www.FreeBSD.org/ports/

There is an automatic redirect from http://www.FreeBSD.org/ports/ to
https://www.FreeBSD.org/ports/ by the web front-end server. However, it would
be better to use the real HTTPS URL without redirects.
