Hi, I've got a query about CVSuping the ports collection for the first time o= n a=20 system. According to=20 /usr/share/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/articles/cvsup-advanced/examples.html you=20 should use *default tag=3D<shipping-date-of-your-release> for the first = CVSup=20 to create the ports checkouts file.=20 I used tag=3D2002.06.11.09.02.00 for 4.6-R, so my cvsup file looked like *default tag=3D2002.06.11.09.02.00 #*default tag=3D. *default host=3Dcvsup.au.FreeBSD.org *default prefix=3D/usr *default base=3D/usr/local/etc/cvsup *default release=3Dcvs delete use-rel-suffix compress ports-all When I tried that, cvsup deleted all my ports. Obviously this is not righ= t! The example cvsup file in /usr/obj/examples and the Handbook don't mentio= n=20 this at all, they just say use tag=3D. for the ports collection. Using tag=3D. seems to work correctly. I'm just wondering, is that correct, or should I do something else the fi= rst=20 time?
