I have a cvsup question. I use CVSup to update a local copy of the CVS repository on one of my machines. In order to avoid a really big hit the first time I supped, I tar and gzip'd a copy of the repository off of a machine at work and ftp'd to my machine. Then I extracted it and fired up cvsup. It works for the most part, but not always. Here's teh problem, it doesn't delete any of those files from the original tarball when they are removed from the repository because it didn't create my local copies of the files, and it is courteous enough to not delete them in case I am making local changes or something. However, I'm not making local changes and want to override this behavior if possible. Any suggestions on how to get my source tree really up-to-date? --- John Baldwin <jobaldwi@vt.edu> -- http://members.freedomnet.com/~jbaldwin/ PGP Key: http://members.freedomnet.com/~jbaldwin/pgpkey.asc "Power Users Use the Power to Serve!" - http://www.freebsd.org To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
