ports tree on various sources

[pseudostem]

Hello,

I would like to know how ports trees are distributed. For e.g. I first went to openports.se and to Solene's website to search for ports I find gnome version 42.1

https://openports.se/meta/gnome

and

https://openports.pl/path/meta/gnome

pkg_add installs gnome 41, so I downloaded the ports tree. Ports tree also has gnome 41. So I went to CVSweb to search and I get to the following page

http://cvsweb.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/cvsweb/ports/meta/gnome/Makefile

which indicates that there's gnome 42 in ports tree in CVS.

So I checkedout the CVS ports tree using -r OPENBSD_7_1

After that

cd /usr/ports/meta/gnome
cat Makefile

COMMENT-main=GNOME desktop meta-package (core installation)
COMMENT-extras=GNOME desktop meta-package (world installation)

# sync with gnome-desktop GNOME_VERSION
V=41.5
PKGNAME=gnome-${V}

What's happening here? This is not anything I wish to install. I just wish to understand the system better.
