I have no idea about sup, but CVS itself contains the master repos-
itory, hence you can always checkout any branch you want.  By
definition, -current is always the HEAD revision (unbranched), while
-stable is by now the ``RELENG_2_1_0'' tag.

If you care for bandwidth utilization, and don't have an urgent need
to be able to remain -current within less than a few hours latency,
better stick with CTM.  It is much smarter than sup.
