FreeBSD 12.2-STABLE r369441 did not contain the bootstrap command, nor is it in the manual or in the manpage of https://www.freebsd.org/cgi/man.cgi?query=3Detcupdate&apropos=3D0&sektion= =3D8&manpath=3DFreeBSD+13.0-current&arch=3Ddefault&format=3Dhtml but I found "Bootstrapping" section of the manpage to have "etcupdate extract" as the command to run. Was this the intended line or am I misunderstanding? I had already removed /usr/src 'before' finding I should migrate to etcupdate from mergemaster but found I had /usr/src.svn (a backup I made when trying to migrate to git) and the poudriere copies both matching the currently installed system. Knowing I could use -s /path/to/source helped me resolve that without having to shuffle a backup/redownload into /usr/src while shuffling my updated git copy out. With documentation I have gone over, it still feels confusing whether or not I should have been using the -B command during this process.
