Hi Andrey,

I wonder if you could explain that in slightly more exacting terms.  I'm
planning on upgrading my system from 4.4rc2 to 4.4-RELEASE. Can cvsup do
this?

I've looked at stable-supfile in the examples directory and with a bit of
editing this would seem to be the right supfile.  I want only to upgrade the
kernel source & ports collection.

My server is live so I don't want to screw anything up in the process.

Thanks for your time.
