FreeBSD Support including:
- Propellor bootstrapping - Basic pkg - Basic ZFS datasets and properties - Simple Poudriere configuration (regular and ZFS) - Poudriere jail creation FIXME: - Cron.hs: runPropellor needs the System, but hasn't yet gotten it. Reorganizing: - Remove FreeBSD.Process - Move ZFS up to Property - Add Info for Pkg.update/Pkg.upgrade - Move FreeBSD.md to doc so it'll show up automatically. - Merge the FreeBSD config with the other sample config. - Use Info to check Pkg updated/upgraded and Poudriere configured. - Warnings clean-up, move ZFS types to Propellor.Types. - Maintainer and license statements.

+# FreeBSD Support for Propellor
+
+This branch is to add FreeBSD support to Propellor. The first steps
+will focus around package management with pkg-ng.
+
+# Bootstrapping
+
+The current Bootstrap process is very apt-centric, so current efforts
+are focusing on passing the System information down into Bootstrap.
+
+Affected functions are:
+
+* `installGitCommand`, which has to install pkg itself, then install
+ git. The `ASSUME_ALWAYS_YES` environment variable must be set so pkg
+ will just do its thing.
+
+* `depsCommand`, which installs as many Haskell dependencies from the
+ system package manager. We also install gmake, but I'm not sure
+ where this is used yet.
