Hi, I'm just starting to work with FreeBSD-Current so I can add some software back into the mix. I've read the handbook, and the FAQ (and I've been a Unix, and Real Time developer for many years so I'm not new to programming) but I have a few questions that don't seem to be in the documentation: 1) How do I do development and not overwrite my work when cvsup'ing? 2) How do I know when cvsuping will NOT trash my current setup? It would be cool if a "last known good source tree" were stored somewhere. I ask this because I sup'd this morning and got toasted and had to sup/build again. 3) Is there a guide on using CVS with CVSup (the man page is not particularly helpful) so that I can have a CVS tree that is updated by cvsup? Thanks, George To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
