This one (and only this one) is wrong - tag=RELENG_5 will currently empty your source tree. Soon (hopefully) it will produce 5-STABLE and current will be labelled 6.x - at that point there will be *two* active stable branches - the older one may be more stable and the newer will be more featurefull, eventually the older one will have no advantages and will die off. Oh yes - the one for the latest, up-to-the-minute, flakiest* CURRENT is tag=. the same as you always need for the ports. * probably not the flakiest - for that you probably want tag=ALPHA_2_0 :) -- C:>WIN | Directable Mirrors The computer obeys and wins. |A Better Way To Focus The Sun You lose and Bill collects. | licenses available - see: | http://www.sohara.org/
