Could the Makefile for ports and src etc not point the user to cvsupit as a way to get themselves configured for updating their ports/src trees? Or perhaps to the apropriate part of the handbook? Just seems we could make folks lives a lot easier this way? Oliver To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-doc" in the body of the message
