According to Chuck Robey: > Can I ask howcome the stuff unpacks into the contrib_softupdates > directory, instead of src/sys/contrib/softupdates, or Because the standard way for CVS when it extracts a module named "foo" is to put it inside a directory named "foo" hence the "contrib_softupdates". You can change it upon checkout by specifying "-d bar" to put it into "bar". When you extract the whole /usr/src tree you don't notice it because the module there is named "src". See "CVSROOT/modules". Use the -d dir option to create a directory called dir for the working files, instead of using the module name. Unless you also use -N, the paths created under dir will be as short as possible. -- Ollivier ROBERT -=- FreeBSD: The Power to Serve! -=- roberto@keltia.freenix.fr FreeBSD keltia.freenix.fr 3.0-BETA #2: Sat Oct 3 11:34:55 CEST 1998 To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
