How to install PHP7 ports on FreeBSD 10.2

My friend ask me about FreeBSD PHP7 ports and he already check if the ports not exist yet. He just feel more comfortable with ports than using git or source.

I search Google and found github repository of PHP 7 ports. I give it a try with my vps and it looks good.

# freebsd-update install
# pkg update

# portsnap extract

Install git
