Change the link to a working cvsupit. Also change the language to show that cvsupit helps customize the supfile and cvsup behavior. While I'm here, delete the information about "grabbing on-the-fly tarballs." ftp.freebsd.org no longer has this functionality. >Fix: *** chapter.sgml-dist Wed Oct 31 10:14:25 2001 --- chapter.sgml Wed Oct 31 10:32:51 2001 *************** *** 233,242 **** collection once and then only what has changed from then on.
