This pops up on -questions and -stable repeatedly. >How-To-Repeat: ls /usr/share/examples/cvsup/ >Fix: Here is my suggested file: /usr/share/examples/cvsup/refuse #This is an example "refuse file". You can copy this file to #/usr/sup/refuse and uncomment what you want. # #Any file listed in /usr/sup/refuse will not be touched by cvsup. For #example, if you've modified /usr/src/etc/sendmail/freebsd.mc to #reflect your local configuration, and you don't CVSup to touch that #file, you can uncomment this: # #etc/sendmail/freebsd.mc # #If you list a directory, changes to any files beneath that directory #will be rejected. For example, if you are an English speaker and are #not tracking the foreign-language ports, you can uncomment the following. # #ports/chinese #ports/german #ports/japanese #ports/korean #ports/russian #ports/vietnamese # #If you refuse large sections of the system (for example, bin/), make #world might refuse to work properly. >Release-Note: >Audit-Trail: >Unformatted: To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-doc" in the body of the message
