The CVSup FAQ describes using different tags for adopting sources. The (outdated) example says to use this for the first cvsup: src-all tag=RELENG_2_2_5_RELEASE list=cvs:RELENG_2_2 Then use this for subsequent cvsups: src-all tag=RELENG_2_2 The CVSup FAQ says to check the Handbook for tags to use. I was under the impression that there was only one tag for ports: *default release=cvs tag=. Its not very clear what should be done for adopting ports/docs sources in the absense of multiple tags. Some clarification would be appreciated. Thanks, Randy --
