Hey all,
Every six hours, we run a set of scripts to sync with our upstream,
FreeBSD.
Starting later today, FreeBSD will work on switching from subversion
to git. FreeBSD is taking the opportunity to resolve issues with
historical commits. That means that the history of the repo, and its
associated commit hashes, will change.
I've run some early tests to pull in the new FreeBSD repo. git becomes
very confused and thinks every single file that we in HardenedBSD have
changed conflicts. That effectively means that we/I have to re-apply
our changes to each and every file. After 7.5 years of development, a
lot of files have been changed. Because of git's confusion, I need to
reimplement much (all?) of HardenedBSD's changes across multiple
branches (hardened/current/master, hardened/12-stable/master, and
hardened/12.2-releng/master).
I expect this reimplementation work will take weeks. Of course, I will
disable the auto-sync later today (after the next sync in 30 minutes
from this writing). I'll keep the community updated as to my progress.
I'd like to take a moment and give gratitude to the community. It's a
pleasure to serve you. I'm grateful for the support you, the
community, provides. We just received a very gracious donation of
$6,600 USD. I plan to budget that towards a new server to host our
self-hosted git service, one or more smaller arm64 devices, and
possibly a risc-v dev board.
Whether monetary, advocacy, bug report submissions, or other ways to
contribute, I'm grateful for your contributions. Your contributions
enable the project's continued development efforts.

That's great news! Keep doing your thing, Shawn!
Thank you.

Hey all,
I have now finished up our 13-current branch
(hardened/current/master). I will soon work on our 12-stable branch
(hardened/12-stable/master).
For the next week or so, I plan to keep the repos up-to-date manually
in case there's any fallout. I will do my best to sync the repos at
least once per day.
Now that 13-current is taken care of, I will start a new
13-current/amd64 package build later today or tomorrow. I'll do the
same for 12-stable, when I'm finished working on that branch, too.
I'll send another email once 12-stable is fixed up.

I've fixed up the 12-stable branch now, too. I've published binary
updates for both 13-current/amd64 and 12-stable/amd64. I've also
kicked off package builds for them.
The auto-sync scripts remain disabled until I get time to adjust the
sync to use the new upstream and its branches.
