Hi Franco,
Thanks for testing, and good to hear it went well.

Happy to report that the migration went smoothly. Just one port installation
finished in error (grass, and looking at the port health that was expected, so
also qgis3 +grass wasn’t migrated) but that didn’t prevent the migration to
complete for all other ports (944 of them).
All this on a MacBook Pro with M1 processor, macOS Sonoma 14.5, Xcode 15.4 and
its CLT’s.
So, all in all, a very positive experience.
Thanks to the MacPorts team!
Ciao

Dear Josh,
since your mail caught me a few minutes after updating from Ventura to Sonoma,
and a few seconds before I started to play with MacPorts migration, I felt
obliged to give the migrate command a shot…
Currently computing dependency order. Will let you know the outcome…
Ciao

A 'migrate' action has been added to MacPorts base in git on the master branch.
If you are comfortable with checking out the git repo, installing MacPorts from
source, running potentially buggy pre-release code, and reporting any issues,
we would greatly appreciate you giving it a try.
The new action automates all parts of the existing Migration procedure apart
from updating Xcode and the CLTs. After updating your OS to a new major version
or transferring to a new machine with a different CPU architecture, you should
be able to simply run:
sudo port migrate
and MacPorts base will first be rebuilt, and then all ports that need to be
reinstalled to be compatible with your current system will be. Build failures
should be handled as gracefully as possible and reported at the end.
Thanks to Umesh Singla for doing the initial work on this feature, and to
Clemens Lang for doing much of the work of completing and updating the code.
