    102 MacPorts verifies the integrity of downloaded files via checksums or signatures so your mirror is not required to provide access via https, but you can if you wish. [https://letsencrypt.org Let's Encrypt] offers free SSL certificates which can be used. Please add your `abc.xy.(distfiles|packages|rsync).macports.org` hostnames as Subject Alternative Names in your SSL certificate.

    104104We suggest you continue to provide access via http, even if you also provide access via https. MacPorts still supports very old OS versions such as Mac OS X 10.4 Tiger, and the version of OpenSSL in old OS versions is not able to communicate with modern SSL web servers. (The cutoff version depends on which encryption algorithms you've configured your web server to allow.) You can disallow http access if you wish, but if you do so it will limit the OS versions that are able to connect to your server.
