Oops , foot in mouth makes it hard to type.
Leave *default release=cvs tag=RELENG_4 as it is.
change cvs-all to:
src-all
doc-all
ports-all tag=.

That's an easy one.
Replace the line:
*default release=cvs tag=RELENG_4
with:
*default release=cvs tag=.
That is how is appears in
/usr/share/examples/cvsup/ports-supfile
The following is from the example file for stable in
/usr/share/examples/cvsup/stable-supfile

# DANGER! WARNING! LOOK OUT! VORSICHT!
#
# If you add any of the ports collections to this file, be sure to
# specify them like this:
#
# ports-all tag=.
#
# If you leave out the "tag=." portion, CVSup will delete all of
# the files in your ports tree. That is because the ports collections
# do not use the same tags as the main part of the FreeBSD source tree.

Subject: CVS deleting ports?
Please CC me on any replies. TIA.
I'm trying to keep everying on my 4.2-STABLE system failry up to date.
I have something going on with the ports that I do not understand.
I've RTFM but I'm fuzzy on CVS and I'm more or less just following the
instructions. (Sorry Greg, your CVS section didn't help me either.)
When I manually add the files to the ports directory (all that seems to
exist is an HTML file) I can build the port. The latest one is
etherboot that I'm playing with.
The problem that I do not understand is, when I do the next CVS run, it
seems to delete everything I just added to the /usr/ports.... directory.
I've transcribed my supfile below. My undetstanding was cvs-all would
bring down "everything" (including the ports.)
Any helo would be appreciated since I would not even call my self a CVS
novice.
Cheers...
