That sounds like much more hassle than doing it the Proper Way(tm) and using CVSup to mirror the repository/bits of the repository you want, but I've never even considered your method. I doubt it's suitable for the average CVS newbie, though. I just mirror the repo on a 28.8k modem (yes, they *do* still exist), but then I suppose it's overkill if all you want is one release. greid -- +-------------------+---------------------+ | George Reid | FreeBSD Committer | | +44 7740 197460 | greid@FreeBSD.org | +-------------------+---------------------+ To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
