Subject:   5.2: will standard-supfile point to RELENG_5_2?
Message-ID:  <3FD3AA5D.8010409@alumni.rice.edu>

I ask this for 5.2 because it never happened for 5.1:
Will src/share/examples/cvsup/standard-supfile be updated to point to 
the "RELENG_5_2" tag instead of "." for 5.2?  I caught myself on many 
freshly installed 5.1 boxes forgetting to change this and CVSupping to 
-CURRENT by accident (instead of tracking the security release branch). 
  Maybe it just slipped through the cracks for 5.1 or maybe it wasn't 
changed for a reason (the only reason I can see would be to steer folks 
to -CURRENT -- but why have a RELENG_5_1 branch then?).  In any case, it 
was set to RELENG_5_0 for 5.0 and it is listed under the files to modify 
before a release:

http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/articles/releng/article.html#VERSIONBUMP

Any enlightenment would be appreciated.

Thanks,
Jon Noack
