Hi Everybody , I know that all FreeBSD version have Branch on code tree . Now I'm using to keep up-to-date FreeBSD witch CVSup and buildworld method . I'm using 4.9 or 5.1 versions . in stable-supfile I setted *default release=cvs tag=RELENG_4_9 I know that, this method for only security advisories and other seriously critical fixes ... What is going on if I set it RELENG_4 ?! Do I have to use it ? What about RELEASE Tag ?! When Do I have to use this type of update for example Can I use it when I want to upgread my FreeBSD 4.9 RELESE to FreeBSD 5.1 or FreeBSD 5.0 RELEASE to Freebsd 5.1 RELEASE ... I wonder about CURRENT Branch , How FreeBSD CURRENT users can keep-up-to date their src tree and system because all of those updates looks like for STABLE or RELEASE ?!! Last question is ; Some body said that you I did not need to make buildworld every time ?! I want to know When need to make buildworld process ?! Thanks Vahric
