ports/UPDATING does not seem to include an entry noting
the last subversion revision prior to the flipping on

He means, "I could just write 'No, 455205 is the first one with FLAVORS
support in it, if you don't count the brief interlude from 450663 until
450939 when introducing it exposed the lack of communication between
ports collection and ports tools maintainers for the first time', but
since that would be entirely too helpful, instead I'll just post a link
to the SVN web interface which boasts all the charm and usability of the
late 1990s and let you figure it out for yourself."


Given that I asked about a specific revision number, it stands
to reason that I had already spent too much time wandering around
svnweb.freebsd.org.  An entry needs to be added to ports/UPDATING
to state which revision turns on flavors and by extension neuters
all port management tools except poudriere.  Four months from now
when users update a system finding that information by crawling
through svnweb.freebsd.org will be a challenge.


Your friend is subversion log search
svn log --search FLAVORS svn://svn.FreeBSD.org
