Excerpt from announcement by Ken Smith <kensmith@buffalo.edu>: > With both the doc and ports repositories now moved to SVN it has been > decided to not export the 9.1 release branch activity to CVS. So > csup/cvsup update mechanisms are not available for updating to 9.1-RC1. > If you would like to use SVN the branch to use is releng/9.1. I read your message and followup messages and have questions about how to switch from csup to svn. System source is in /usr/src obtained by csup, apparently now being deprecated. Do I need to delete (rm -R /usr/src/*) before running svn co svn://svn.freebsd.org/base/stable/9 /usr/src I don't want an out-of-sync mess resulting from mixing two versions, assume that wouldn't work well. I guess I need to switch the doc (/usr/doc) also to svn. What about the ports? Would I need to switch the ports tree from "portsnap fetch update", or is portsnap still the proper way? Tom
