>Description:
The descriptions of the various methods of obtaining source from the CVS repository at http://www.freebsd.org/support.html#cvs contain links in the first three items that point to an intermediary page which then links to the pages describing the actual methods in question. The attached diff streamlines this process (from looking at the source, it appears that syncing.sgml in the Handbook was broken up at some stage, and these links weren't updated to reflect that).
>How-To-Repeat:
-
>Fix:
(My second submitted diff, and my first one within WWW... it appears from my first message tonight that the web form eats my formatting. Apologies.)

cvsup (in terms of wall time and bytes transferred) but is easier to use
