Don't have the book (yet), but it tells you how in the Handbook. http://www.freebsd.org/handbook/synching.html 18.3.3.3 4th paragraph after the 5 linked questions. >Speaking of which, how do I update ports-all if I'm tracking stable? >I see only tag=. is valid for the ports tree, if I use that I get the >most current ports?

Try changing the tag in the supfile you use: ... *default tag=RELENG_3 src-all *default tag=. ports-all doc-all www Added the last 2 since they need the 'tag=.' as well as the ports collection does. Personally I do separate files since I pull ports more often than not and I prefer to keep separate logs of each.
