Kingsley" Subject: no RELENG_3 in my CVSup'd repository? Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-freebsd-stable@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Howdy, For many a moon I've been running CVSup nightly to keep my local cvs repository in sync. Has worked well all along. I've been following the discussion here with respect to the problems some folks have been having with building, checking out, etc. the RELENG_3 sources. Since this sort of process has been working fine for me all along for checking out the RELENG_2_2 or -CURRENT sources I didn't expect to have much trouble. So, yesterday I did this, usual sort of thing (with CVSROOT pointing at my local repository, of course): cvs co -rRELENG_3 src ... it starts chewing... I notice that it's not actually extracing any sources into my current directory. Not wanting to wait for ever, I abort and do the same but for the module "modules". It quickly spits back: cvs [checkout aborted]: no such tag RELENG_3 Further digging makes me wonder if my CVSup supfile is out of date, but comparison with the current handbook documentation doesn't indicate anything conclusive. I'm using this command to keep my repository up to date: /usr/local/bin/cvsup -g -L 2 -P - /etc/cvsupfile And here is my /etc/cvsupfile: *default host=cvsup3.FreeBSD.org *default base=/usr/local/etc/cvsup *default prefix=/usr/cvs/FreeBSD *default release=cvs *default delete use-rel-suffix distrib distrib release=self src-all cvs-crypto ports-all doc-all This looks okay to me, but I'm not really up to snuff on this stuff. Is there anything that jumps out here as a reason why my CVS repository doesn't seem to know about the RELENG_3 tag? ...or other ideas about what I'm doing wrong?
