it DOES help to read, and if you still don't understand, i'll simplify, if
you have just ports-all it del's all the files in the ports tree

put ports-all tag=.   next time

# DANGER!  WARNING!  LOOK OUT!  VORSICHT!
#
# If you add any of the ports collections to this file, be sure to
# specify them like this:
#
#   ports-all tag=.
#
# If you leave out the "tag=." portion, CVSup will delete all of
# the files in your ports tree.  That is because "RELENG_2_1_0" and
# "RELENG_2_2" are not valid tags for the ports portion of the CVS
# repository.
