Sorry, do you mind explaining why this is needed? And should it be cloning
to main or to the latest LTS tag? I think I am ignorant of what is required
for your build process.

See Cody's comment from last April about unit tests being broken on FreeBSD
13.0 and 14.0. My recollection is that there is no volunteer to resolve
these issues currently, which is why we are not targeting unit tests for
FreeBSD at the Community Lab - only build tests.
