I would have preferred to know about the -C option earlier- I hadn't realised how helpful it was. I used -Cv in the end which gave me a better overview. I do have a "WARN: no CVS directories. Use -N to check a new port." Is this normal? Is this simply expected of a new uncommitted port? I assume this is the case due to -N mentioned in the warning, I also ran it with -CvN and it came back with "looks fine". I'll upload a new .shar to my URI now. THX :)
