I answered questions below but I think your approach is wrong. Just make
1 set / repository and use meta packages. See my blog
http://blog.shatow.net/posts/2013-07-21-managing-role-based-freebsd-servers-with-meta-packages-and-poudriere/

You would make a local/projectA meta package, local/projectB meta
package, etc. Your bulk list would only have the top-level meta-packages.

The one downside is that this would be 1 set with the same options.

Good point, maybe I will go this way.

So why poudriere options did ask me for cyrus-sasl option if it is not
needed and not built?


The 'options' subcommand just calls 'make config-conditional' on the
port and then 'make config-recursive' on it again so that this issue
doesn't happen. Perhaps these commands are broken in the ports framework.

Yes, I did saw something similar in the past with portmaster's build / configuring options. So it can be broken in the ports framework.

After reading the docs on
https://fossil.etoilebsd.net/poudriere/doc/trunk/doc/poudriere.8.wiki#x437573746f6d206275696c64206f7074696f6e73


That site is not updated anymore. The current documentation is
https://github.com/freebsd/poudriere/wiki/poudriere.8

Thank you, I didn't know it.

I expected poudriere to combine options from both directories together.

No, it won't do that. Each options dir is a specific set. It will never
build _a set_ using _multiple sets_ configs and options. It will only
use files from _that 1 set_.

There is no sane way for Poudriere to do what you want. The 2 options
dirs could easily conflict with each other. I recommend against trying
to make this work and just making a new set.

OK

Is it possible to use some kind of union mount / unionfs to overlay all
found directories according to CUSTOMISATION order?

And in the meantime - is it possible to use multiple -f for "poudriere
options" command?

Yes, but again only 1 set will be used. So you have to make a '-z
combined_set' and run options against that set.

OK, I will make a first set as before, copy all options subdirectories to the second set directory and then run "poudrier options" for this new bigger set containing merged ports lists so I will change only options for additional new ports.

Thank you for your quick response!
