ISTM that SVN is not the default method for users; but portsnap is the preferred method for users. Developers, OTOH, may find SVN useful. http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/ports-using.html http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/updating-upgrading-portsnap.html I have no idea if the OP is a user or a developer; but I do know that at least a cursory reading of the Handbook is a good idea, since the OP question seems to be directly addressed in the Handbook. Regards, Joe
