-----Original Message----- From: "MET" <met@uberstats.com> To: "'Jud'" <jud@myrealbox.com> Date: Fri, 9 Aug 2002 15:31:58 -0400 Subject: RE: RE: Gaim + KDE || synchronizing source [MET] How would I go about synchronizing the source tree ? _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ [Jud] If you've done a "make world" recently, then don't=20 worry about it. If you haven't, then do #cvsup -g -L 2 [$PORTS-SUPFILE] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ [MET] I'm very new to Unix. #cvsup -g -L 2 [$PORTS-SUPFILE] What do I put in $PORTS-SUPFILE ? _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ [Jud] 'sokay, I'm not so "old to Unix" myself. ;) This page from the Handbook will be helpful: http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/cvsup.html Note that at section A.6.3 it points out that you have=20 example supfiles in your /usr/share/examples/cvsup/=20 directory. Copy the file named ports-supfile in=20 that directory to wherever you will want to have your=20 supfiles. I have them in my home directory; the Handbook says /usr/local/etc/cvsup/ is the default. (When I say "them," I mean ports-supfile and, since I track -STABLE, stable-supfile.) Make the necessary changes in the *copies*, not the original example supfiles. For instance, the supfiles tell you where you must enter the cvsup server you want to use. There's a list of the cvsup servers on the Handbook page; just use the one closest to you. By the way, if you don't want to type "-g -L 2" all the time: #cp /etc/defaults/make.conf /etc Then edit /etc/make.conf by uncommenting the line regarding the -g -L 2 cvsup flags.
