git stash problem with `port sync'

[Christopher Jones]

Hi,

Mostly likely because the global settings are under your home area, whilst the checkout below is not.

Just go to  /opt/macports/macports-ports and set the local settings for that area as well.

Or, move your ports checkout to somewhere in your home area.
