Is that wrong? There is a lot of stuff that comes along but here is what I do. I have a script file called upstable. It looks like # m upstable #! /bin/sh cd /root/cvsup #cvsup -g -L 2 4.x-stable-supfile 2>&1 | tee cvsup.log cvsup -g -L 2 stable-supfile 2>&1 | tee /var/log/build/cvsup.log cd /var/log/build/ # Now convert the log to html` cvsuplog < cvsup.log > cvsup-`date "+%Y%m%d-%H%M"`.html Now /root/cvsup/stable-supfile looks like # cat stable* # $FreeBSD: src/share/examples/cvsup/stable-supfile # IMPORTANT: Change the next line to use one of the CVSup mirror sites # listed at http://www.freebsd.org/handbook/mirrors.html. #*default host=cvsup16.freebsd.org *default host=crystal *default base=/usr *default prefix=/usr *default release=cvs tag=RELENG_4 *default delete use-rel-suffix # If your network link is a T1 or faster, comment out the following line. #*default compress ## Main Source Tree. # src-all Crystal is the host name of my local computer running cvsupd. If I am concerned about what is on it. I change the host and get my update from cvsup16. If I want to cvsup RELENG_5, I just change the tag and the scripts work on both versions.
