Re: Regarding MESSAGEs during pkg_add installation of meta packages

For an explanation of pkgsrc:

  https://www.netbsd.org/docs/pkgsrc/

Basically a package is control files that encode how to download sources
of something and build it.  So it does not have what we call "upstream
sources" and is small.

pkgsrc-wip uses git, not git-in-a-website.  You clone, remote
update,commit, rebase, push, all from the command line.  This is how git
it normally used, in my view, and the github way is a special case.
