For a long time, I did work with two files:

/etc/pkg/FreeBSD-base.conf

/etc/pkg/FreeBSD-ports.conf

– FreeBSD-ports.conf was a symlink to FreeBSD.conf, with FreeBSD-ports (within the
file) as the name for the repo.

I dropped the habit immediately after I discovered that a single file could
specify multiple repos.

I prefer editing a single file, wherever possible.

I sometimes used uclcmd, <https://www.freshports.org/devel/uclcmd/>.

I typically aim for three repos in the one file:

FreeBSD-base
FreeBSD-kmods
FreeBSD-ports

I would like to see this too.
