Through trial, error and correction, for FreeBSD-CURRENT I have these 
for myself:

<https://old.reddit.com/comments/keme3b/-/ghxggjm/>; for the initial 
clone – terse

<https://old.reddit.com/comments/keme3b/-/ggk4we2/>; for updating prior 
to a build. Verbose, which you might find useful whilst experimenting on 
your test system, however as Robert Huff and others (elsewhere) point 
out: ultimately, it's not complicated. If you want something terse from 
this comment in Reddit, you might take the tail of step (4):


git -C /usr/src pull --ff-only


Simple :-) … famous last words …
