I've been wondering how to sync my ports tree revision to that used for the package repository for a bit, for precisely this purpose. Second, I notice the script only covers versions up to 10.1. It fails for 10-STABLE, which is currently labeled as 10.2-PRERELEASE. I'm guessing that at present 10-STABLE still uses the same package repo as 10.1-RELEASE, but how would I determine that? I don't want to update the script and break something because I overlooked some basic precaution.
