Cloning instructions will wipe distfiles cache.

Cloning from local git-daemon

The existing instructions will also wipe the dist files cache which could be quite big. The following is based on my notes for fixing portage if it's repository got corrupt.

root # cd /usr/portage
root # git clone --depth 1 git://git.lan/portage.git tmp
root # rm -r .git
root # mv tmp/.git .
root # git reset --hard
root # chown -R portage:portage /usr/portage

Maybe is git clone --depth 1 --mirror --bare git://github.com/funtoo/ports-2012.git portage.git an better option for the mirror clone?
