As for /usr/local/etc/cvsup, I did create it because the documentation 
used that directory in the examples for CVSup's status files.  I also 
practiced uploading to a non-/usr directory first just to build 
confidence.  I just used that directory because after reading it in the 
documentation I knew I'd remember it.  Changed the base, however to my 
own staging area.


Here's the example from the documentation:

#

Putting it all together:

Here is the entire supfile for our example:

*default tag=.
*default host=cvsup666.FreeBSD.org
*default prefix=/usr
*default base=/usr/local/etc/cvsup
*default release=cvs delete use-rel-suffix compress

src-all
