About

portzap is a utility that manages a local copy of the HardenedBSD ports tree. The copy of the ports tree is maintained by members of the _portzap group, and the copy of the ports tree can be installed to /usr/ports/ by root.

Examples

CLI: setup-portzap

This command should be run after installing portzap for the first time:

# Add the portzap user, group and home directory.
# This command requires root privileges.
# setup-portzap

CLI: portzap

# Clone the HardenedBSD ports tree into /home/_portzap/ports/.
# This command is delegated to the '_portzap' user.
$ portzap clone

# Pull updates into /home/_portzap/ports/.
# This command is delegated to the '_portzap' user.
$ portzap pull

# Install /home/_portzap/ports/ into /usr/ports/.
# This command requires root privileges.
# portzap install

# Start over: erase /usr/ports/ and /home/_portzap/ports/.
# This command requires root privileges.
$ portzap erase
