Specifically, the repochurn from ports/archivers/xz's removal means I can't easily see, via "svn log" (in a resurrected version), when the port was deleted. I had to 'svn annotate' ports/MOVED, assume the commits to the port and ports/MOVED were done at the same time - not always the case, and do some more hunting to get the port back in my tree. In the future, if absolutely needed to prevent a hard collision between ports and BASE, it would be cleaner to use IGNORE (e.g., 9.2-RELEASE, until EoL/2015): %make ===> xz-5.0.5 may conflict with "xz (XZ Utils) 5.0.4" in the base system. This would prevent further churn caused by creating a -devel port, waiting for all supported FreeBSD base trees to catch up, probably deleting the -devel port if it stagnates for a while, and, if so, perhaps losing its easily-found history (svn log).
