No, we don't intend to do anything like that... it's a bit of a throwback
and it eats excessive mirror bandwidth.  DragonFly users who want to track
a release branch or master branch can pull down the git repo.  Once you
have the repo further git pulls will be incremental.  The user must then do
a buildworld/installworld/upgrade sequence to update their system.   That
is the only supported method.  It's important because the upgrade sequence
also handles whatever intelligence is required (such as removing old files
when files have been moved around).
