well, I think that could be also possible with a new core/ports package,
which is the owner of the official *.rsync files
I can't see more disadvantages

I didn't know how git-rsync works on our repos before, so I think having
something like:
    /core/{2.4,2.5,...}
    /opt/{2.4,2.5,...}
    ...
    /xfce/{2.4,2.5,...}
    ...

is really better than the old one:
    /2.4/{core,opt, ..., xfce,..}

IMHO it sounds a reasonable way to do it
+1
