Some tags are valid only for certain collections of files. If you specify an incorrect or misspelled tag, CVSup will delete files which you probably do not want deleted. In particular, use only "tag=." for the "ports-*" collections. --end cvsup is very useful if for instance, you have a machine that you cannot upgrade, but you need a port, the current port doesn't seem to work, you can CVSup backwards to your particular SNAP do build the port. -Alfred To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-hackers" in the body of the message
