that's right. the cvsup is still superrior for the task, far more better
than sup ever could be...

and hard to set up? either the said binary, or

cd /usr/ports/net/cvsup
make all install

and there you go after a while. what comes to the cvsupfile, well, it
can not be that hard.

once you've been assimilated to cvsup you dont want to drop it.
