[example that runs `git archive` on /usr/ports]

This appears to be the correct answer.
/usr/local/lib/python3.11/site-packages/setuptools_scm/_file_finders/git.py
runs `git rev-parse HEAD` to detect whether there is a Git repository,
and if so, eventually runs `git archive` on it to find version information.
This interacts badly with the port build process. Fortunately there is
already a fix:
commit deb79782a9b87c64d06441e4bf67e46bf19c45c3

in the ports tree sets GIT_CEILING_DIRS to prevent this problem.
Presumably you're installing from a ports tree that does not yet
have this fix in it.
See also https://reviews.freebsd.org/D47850 -- and if you do have
this commit, let us know that something isn't working here.
