Bug ID: 265853
Summary: freebsd-update(8): new kernel produces pretty
different what(1)'s output
Product: Base System
Version: 13.1-RELEASE
Hardware: Any
OS: Any
Status: New
Severity: Affects Many People
Priority: ---
Component: kern
Assignee: b...@freebsd.org
Reporter: egyp...@freebsd.org
ISSUE:
after updating 13.1-RELEASE to 13.1-RELEASE-p1 using freebsd-update(8), the
output produced by what(1) is pretty different and does not present the proper
branch and git revision as in old 13.1-RELEASE's kernel.
HOW TO REPRODUCE:
0. install a vanilla FreeBSD 13.1-RELEASE machine;
1. check the output of `what -qs /boot/kernel/kernel` before updating your
system;
2. update the base system using `freebsd-update fetch install`
3. reboot the machine (because a new kernel was installed);
4. check that output of step 1. again.

IMPACT:
this is, AFAIK, affecting *all* users of freebsd-update(8).
