This is not a full portage configuration. It contains only those parts that are
necessary to set up a gentoo github mirror based sync system:
* configures portage to sync via https://github.com/gentoo/gentoo.git
* updates metadata-cache (the first update might take long, all subsequent ones not)
* updates the dtd directory
* updates the glsa directory
* updates herds.xml
* updates the news directory
## Notes
* Configures Portage to sync via https://github.com/gentoo/gentoo.git URL.

* Updates the dtd directory.
* Updates the glsa directory.
* Updates `herds.xml` file.
* Updates the news directory.
