Dear Joshua Root

I followed your (Wiki's) suggestion of "You can sync your port tree using Git" (wiki:howto/SyncingWithGit), and, in the end, after I run the final step "Step 3: " everything goes well:

sudo port -v sync

That's right. You can tell MacPorts to use a method other than rsync for sudo port sync, but rsync is the only available method for the part of sudo port selfupdate that updates MacPorts base. Therefore, if you cannot use rsync, you can't use sudo port selfupdate. You'll have to manually install new MacPorts base releases when they become available, such as by downloading the installer from our web site and running it.

The FAQ entry doesn't seem to point this out; it should probably be added. Anyone can edit the wiki.
