Assuming that you are aware of the CVSup tool, the attached supfile will pull the bug database down into /a/FreeBSD/gnats. If you not, that's still the case, but see http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/cvsup.html for details on how to use it. You are looking at the best part of 1 GB. Let us know if you have further questions regarding GNATS; we'll be glad to help and you may find that there are tools or statistics available already that may save you some work. Cheers, Ceri --=20 Only two things are infinite, the universe and human stupidity, and I'm not sure about the former. -- Einstein (attrib.) --jaoouwwPWoQSJZYp Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Disposition: attachment; filename=supfile-FreeBSD-gnats # This file contains all of the "CVSup collections" that make up the # FreeBSD-stable source tree. # # CVSup (CVS Update Protocol) allows you to download the latest CVS # tree (or any branch of development therefrom) to your system easily # and efficiently (far more so than with sup, which CVSup is aimed # at replacing). If you're running CVSup interactively, and are # currently using an X display server, you should run CVSup as follows # to keep your CVS tree up-to-date: # # cvsup stable-supfile # # If not running X, or invoking cvsup from a non-interactive script, then # run it as follows: # # cvsup -g -L 2 stable-supfile # # You may wish to change some of the settings in this file to better # suit your system: # # host=CHANGE_THIS.FreeBSD.org # This specifies the server host which will supply the # file updates. You must change it to one of the CVSup # mirror sites listed in the FreeBSD Handbook at # http://www.freebsd.org/handbook/mirrors.html. # You can override this setting on the command line # with cvsup's "-h host" option. # # base=/usr # This specifies the root where CVSup will store information # about the collections you have transferred to your system. # A setting of "/usr" will generate this information in # /usr/sup. Even if you are CVSupping a large number of # collections, you will be hard pressed to generate more than # ~1MB of data in this directory. You can override the # "base" setting on the command line with cvsup's "-b base" # option. This directory must exist in order to run CVSup. # # prefix=/usr # This specifies where to place the requested files. A # setting of "/usr" will place all of the files requested # in "/usr/src" (e.g., "/usr/src/bin", "/usr/src/lib"). # The prefix directory must exist in order to run CVSup. # ############################################################################### # # DANGER! WARNING! LOOK OUT! VORSICHT! # # If you add any of the ports collections to this file, be sure to # specify them like this: # # ports-all tag=. # # If you leave out the "tag=." portion, CVSup will delete all of # the files in your ports tree.
