Notes from UPDATING
These upgrade notes are taken from /usr/ports/UPDATING
  • 2025-08-15
    Affects: users of net/syncthing
    Author: dvl@FreeBSD.org
    Reason: 
      Old single-dash long options are no longer supported, e.g. -home must be
      given as --home. Database backend switched from LevelDB to SQLite. No
      changes to run-time dependencies. There is a migration on first launch
      which can be lengthy for larger setups.

net/syncthing: put back patch to avoid upgrading, avoid stripping

We don't want the built in upgrading, we want to do it via ports/packages, so
put back the patch to make it always say the version in use is current.

Avoid stripping as stripping go binaries is explicitly unsupported, dangerous
and known to cause problems.
