The l10n chapter directs people to add things to ~/.csh.login but
testing reveals that ~/.login is the right path.
This has also been corroborated by dtrace, and the csh(1) manual page
also refers to ~/.login.

Currently '/usr/local/bin/python3.7' is used as the value of
PYTHON_CMD. Right now this works because 3.7 is the default version of
Python 3 in the ports tree. However, at some point in the future, this
will be undoubtedly be changed.
It is also possible that users already might be building versions
newer than the default port/package, which needs to be an supported as
well.
In addition, the FDP recommends installing the 'python3' package. This
meta port/package depends on the default version of python, and
automatically creates a symlink to the default version.
With all this in mind, use '/usr/local/bin/python3' is used as the value
of PYTHON_CMD, since this means that the instructions will work
irrespective of which version is assigned.
In order for hugo to build all links correctly, it is necessary to
define baseURL - but in order to do this, we need some way of adding a
hostname. This change adds the HOSTNAME variable to accomplish this.
Another advantage is that if HOSTNAME is set to something other than
localhost, hugo can be run on a different (more powerful) machine which
can shorten the time it takes to build.
A note about this will need to be added to the FDP later.
With this extension a git hash can be easily referenced.
The porters handbook versions chapter uses this extension
as an example in the FreeBSD 14.0 version table.
An example of use
gitref:hash[repository="src|doc|ports",length=hash-longitude]
The repository should be src, doc or ports.
And if no length it's specified the macro will use 12 characters
of the specified hash.

The package name 'hugo' refers to emulators/hugo, a PC Engine
(TurboGrafx 16) emulator, whereas the hugo that is required by the new
framework is www/gohugo. A similar case applies with the package name of
AsciiDoctor, which is 'rubygem-asciidoctor'.
Therefore fix package names so they refer to proper ones.

Remove old a.out information. Update the policy to match our current practice of
rarely, if ever, bumping the major version of libraries, but instead relying on
symbol versioning to maintain a stable ABI. Move from paragraph form to bullet
points. Also, tweak the 'once per major release' policy to 'as needed' because
the conditions that existed for the former no longer apply.
