You are right about ports -- I'll fix the supconv program and the manual page in the next release. Sorry! But the rest of what you wrote is not correct! For -stable, you want "tag=RELENG_2_1_0", and for -current it should be "tag=.". You have to specify the tag exactly right, or (as you found out) it will delete your files. Why? Because those files are effectively "dead" for your (unknown) tag. Try it with cvs some time -- it'll do exactly the same thing. -- John
