I'm not sure if svn can be made to 'take over' a tree of files already
obtained by non-svn means. I believe not. Therefore to get hold of
9.1rc do:
# cd /usr
# mv src src.old
# svn co http://svn.freebsd.org/base/releng/9.1 src
and then later on to update your tree with any changes from upstream:
# svn up
Note: the first time you update from a SVN tree, you'll get a lot of
mergemaster false positives, because the format of the $FreeBSD$ VCS id
string is different. Use of 'mergemaster -F' is recommended.
Et voilą.
Cheers,
Matthew
