Just to back up that point: until CVS is completely unused by releng (docs, ports are still done via CVS), it really shouldn't be removed from base (no matter how broken or undeveloped it is). WITHOUT_CVS (assuming that the knob actually works as advertised unlike many of our other knobs -- which last time I checked did in fact work) in /etc/src.conf suffices for now. Thanks, -Garrett I used to work with a group that used CVS extensively for managing changes to FreeBSD. It made my life a lot easier when we need to evaluate changes to code with FreeBSD to ensure we were license compliant.. it was very difficult to have to wade through with Protex Blackduck because it tosses up a ton of false positives, so any way we could avoid doing that by using an SCM that produces sane output which cv?sup doesn't currently do, all for the better.
