So /usr/bin/cvs should be just we we need for FreeBSD? Weren't you saying we shouldn't have a custom SVN client for FreeBSD use? Folks should use the "update -A" when they *need* to, not just out of habit as a default argument if no -r or -D. If you have ideas how to future relax the checks and not break semantics, please let me know. I've dealt with a use case Kris reported to me, and the one you reported to me. -- -- David (obrien@FreeBSD.org)
