Cannot sync with MacPorts from SVN

By running 10.7.4, I ran the following:

mkdir -p /opt/mports
cd /opt/mports
svn checkout https://svn.macports.org/repository/macports/trunk
cd trunk/base
./configure --enable-readline
make
sudo make install
make distclean

Then I launched nano /opt/local/etc/macports/sources.conf, commented out rsync://rsync.macports.org/release/tarballs/ports.tarand added tofile://opt/mports/trunk/dports [default]

After starting, sudo port -d syncI got

Updating via rsync works fine, but not when using local sources. In addition, I was given the opportunity to accept the certificate during verification at the beginning, and I decided to accept it forever.

The answer provided by @Vortexfive is semi-right. Do as he says , then copy .subversion from your home directory to /opt/local/var/macports/home:

$ sudo bash
# find ~/.subversion/auth -type f -exec rm -f {} \;
# cd /opt/mports/trunk
# svn update     (press 'p' to store the certificate)
# cd /opt/local/var/macports/home
# cp -R ~/.subversion .
# port selfupdate

Done!

( , , --non-interactive):

/usr/bin/svn update /opt/mports/trunk/dports
