Assuming someone installed the 4.8-RELEASE ports tree from their CDROM, then the ports-supfile would need to contain: *default tag=RELENG_4_8_0_RELEASE list=cvs:. for the first cvsup to adopt that ports tree and then change the ports-supfile to: *default release=cvs tag=. for the second cvsup to update to the latest ports tree. I'll have to dig out the old 486 that has some release installed on it and give it a try. Cvsup must do an excellent job of keeping track of sources even though the adoption isn't done since I rarely see the adoption mentioned in the lists. Thanks for the clarification! Randy --
